The new schedule for public offices has been released by the federal government in advance of the 2024 Ramadan holy month.
In order to accommodate the staff during the holy month of fasting, which is anticipated to begin on March 12, it has shortened the working hours. The Ruet-e-Hilal Committee will decide in the end when Ramadan begins.
Given that the majority of federal offices are located in Islamabad, the updated schedules released by the federal government will mostly apply there.
