Dear friend,
It is often said that ignorance is bliss. This is what is happening with your manager. While coming up with the quixotic proposal for working for 14 days continuously, he could have given legal justification. However, he cannot do that because under the provisions of Shops and Establishment Act, after working for six days, worker is eligible for one day weekly off.
The industries that work on all the seven days, find it difficult to given weekly off exactly on the seventh day. Hence minor adjustment of 1-2 days is made. But by and large space between two offs should be six days.
In the month of July 2018, there are five Sundays. Therefore, average worker becomes eligible for five weekly offs. This is the simple justification. One need not to have knowledge of the law.
Thanks,

You tell your boss to issue a office memo that you are not eligible for 5th weekly holiday.

Dear Colleague,
It is your legal right to have weekly off after working for six days and you cannot be deprived of it due to the ignorance of your boss about legal provisions in the Delhi Shops and Establishment Act/Rules.
You escalate this matter with higher authorities if he refuses to give you 5weekly offs in July 18.
