Info minister dismisses reports of change in weekly holiday

ISLAMABAD: Information Minister Fawad Chaudhry on Thursday dismissed reports of the government changing the weekly holiday.

“No change in weekly holiday calendar is under consideration, all such rumours regarding change in this regard are baseless,” Chaudhry tweeted.

Earlier this week, reports started making rounds that the government was considering changing the weekly off day from Sunday to Friday in an effort to strengthen business relations with Middle East countries.
