The Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD) has predicted that there is a high chance of Eidul Adha 2024 to be observed on June 17, Monday.

The PMD’s Climate Data Processing Centre has predicted that the crescent moon for Zul Hajj will be born on June 6 at 5:38 PM, reports Samaa News.

Despite the forecasts, the Central Ruet-e-Hilal Committee will make the final decision regarding the moon sighting in the country.

Holiday schedule

The official 2024 holiday calendar has earmarked the Eid ul Azha holidays from June 17 to 19.

However, considering the tendency of most government offices to remain closed on Saturdays and Sundays, the holiday period will effectively commence on June 15.

A formal notification detailing the revised holidays will be issued by the federal government in the days leading up to Eid ul Azha.
