April 16, 2022 (MLN): Amid raising grave concerns of federal employees over PM Muhammad Shehbaz Sharif’s decision to impose a six-day workweek, the government is likely to reverse its decision right after Eid-ul-Fitar.

PM had decided to make Saturday a workday because of having fewer working hours in Ramadan ul Mubarak and Eid holidays, Miftah Ismail, the former Finance Minister said in a Tweet on Saturday.

“I will request him to relook at this decision post Eid. I am hopeful,” he added.
