A notification has also been issued in this regard.
Earlier on Thursday, the federal government had also announced a five-day holiday for Eid.
When will Eid ul Fitr be?
The Central Ruet-e-Hilal Committee is set to meet on April 20 for the sighting of the Eid ul Fitr crescent moon, a statement from the religious affairs ministry said on Tuesday.
The meeting is set to be held at the religious affairs ministry in Islamabad and will be presided over by Ruet-e-Halal Committee Chairman Maulana Abdul Khabir Azad, the statement said.
