If you couldn't make the most of the holiday season in 2014, you have every reason to look forward to 2015. That's because the new year has a whopping 58 days of holidays. You don't need to thank the Leave Gods for this, but 2015 is packed with three- and four-day weekends. And if you can bank on your ingenuity you can also have a bumper nine-day Diwali break starting November 7 (Saturday). The week would unfold like this: November 8: Sunday; November 9: Dhanteras; November 10: Naraka Chaturdashi or take leave; November 11: Diwali/Lakshmi Puja; November 12: Balipratipada, or take leave; November 13: Bhai dooj; November 14: Saturday; November 15: Sunday.
