  "account": "Banks across India are open on Saturday, September 5, 2026, according to the Reserve Bank of India's monthly list of state-wise bank holidays. This is because it is the first Saturday of the month and does not fall under any of the designated bank holiday categories.\n\nHowever, there are some specific occasions in the state of Rajasthan where banks will be closed. On September 11, there are elections in the jurisdiction of Jaipur Municipal Corporation, which is a bank holiday. Other bank holidays in September 2026 in Rajasthan include:\n\n- Tirubhav Tithi of Srimanta Sankardeva on September 12\n- Ganesh Chaturthi/Ganesh Puja/Varasiddhi Vinayaka Vrata/Vinayakar Chathurthi/Hartalika on September 14\n- Samvatsari (Chaturthi Paksha)/Nuakhai/Ganesh Chaturthi (2nd Day) on September 15\n- Janmotsav of Srimanta Sankardeva/Sree Narayana Guru Samadhi on September 21\n- Karma Puja on September 22\n- Birthday of Maharaja Hari Singh Ji on September 23\n- Indrajatra on September 25\n\nThese dates may vary depending on the state, so it is advisable to check the RBI holiday calendar for the specific state in question. While physical banking branches may not be open on these holidays, customers can still conduct banking transactions through digital channels such as Internet banking, SMS banking, and WhatsApp banking.",
