In a move to facilitate citizens during the upcoming Eid-ul-Fitr celebrations, the government of Pakistan has announced an extension of public holidays. Eid-ul-Fitr, marking the end of Ramadan, is expected to fall on either the 10th or 11th of April. With the government granting a three-day holiday for Eid-ul-Fitr, festivities could span from April 10th to April 12th.
Furthermore, considering that April 13th and 14th fall on Saturday and Sunday respectively, this grants an extended break for the populace. Hence, individuals can enjoy a leisurely five-day holiday period, culminating with the weekend.
This decision aims to allow citizens ample time to observe and celebrate the joyous occasion with their families and loved ones. It also provides an opportunity for people to engage in religious and cultural activities without the constraint of work obligations.
The extension of Eid holidays is expected to be welcomed by many, as it allows for a more relaxed and fulfilling celebration of this significant religious festival.
