According to sources within the cabinet, the federal cabinet has finalised four Eid holidays, from Monday, May 2 to Thursday, May 5.

 

The Interior Ministry had provided a summary for three public holidays on Eid, according to PTV News. Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, on the other hand, has allowed four holidays for the Islamic feast.

Because government offices are closed on Sunday, government personnel are most likely to take five days off for Eid, with Friday, May 6th, and Saturday, May 7th, being the only working days of the week.

Meanwhile, astrologers predict that Ramadan will last 30 days since the Shawwal moon will be less visible anywhere in the country on the evening of Ramadan 29. (Sunday, 1 May).

As a result, Eid-ul-Fitr in Pakistan is most likely to observe on May 3rd.
