Hi,
This is very tricky question because you can't justify it clearly because most of the time what i have seen is, its totally depends on the management.
as we go by factories act then this will be 2 days off.(legally)
here i must say you should to put your comments to your supervisor or management if they are agree like what legal things says then defiantly go for 2 days off.
and here i will go for 2 days off only.
Kind Regards,

Hi poonam,
Most of the company's consider it as 4 days leave i.e they expect the employee's to be present before his/her WOF's start Or after his/her WOF's(i.e they should be either present on Friday or Monday).
It depends on the company's Policy.
Thanks & Regards,

Dear Poonam, It depends on the organisation policies. The middle holidays can be excluded, discuss with your top executives and decide on this. - aravindan

Dear Poonam,
There are different types of leaves. If someone has applied for Casual Leave (CL) then it would be counted as 2 days off and in case it is Priveledged Leave (PL) then the intervening offs will be counted as Leave.
You will also have to refer to your company policy for the same.

Santosh
