Earlier this week, the federal government announced three public holidays from May 26 to May 28 on the occasion of Eid-ul-Azha.
According to a notification issued by the Cabinet Division, Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif approved the public holidays for the festival.
The announcement came after moon sighting reports were received from Karachi and other cities of Sindh, as well as Mardan, Rawalpindi, Peshawar and several other areas.
Celebrated on the 10th of Zilhaj, Eid-ul-Azha marks the completion of Hajj, one of the five pillars of Islam.
