I want to show 'out of office message' in all the public holidays in one go
that it I don't have to go to each holiday and change the status manually for
every holiday.

Have you tried the group and drag/drop technique described at http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/searchreplacecompany.htm

Well this doesn't help.

Actually I can change the status message individually when I go to each
public holiday, right click, Show Time As - Out of Office. But I want that
instead of going to each holiday I can just do for all of the public holidays
in just one go.

And that's what the technique I suggested would allow you to do. Did you try it? What happened when you dragged all the holidays to the Show Time As - Out of Office group.
