  1. However, still it is not clear whether RH is permissible if sandwiched between close holiday and Sunday followed by EL.
    e.g. 29 (Thursday) and 30 (Friday) March is close holiday then 31 (Saturday) March is RH, then 01 April is Sunday and EL starting from 2nd April (Monday).Here in this example RH is permissible or will be included in EL?
