Banks in Pakistan will observe a three-day closure starting from Saturday, November 7, and culminating with a public holiday on Monday, November 9. This decision comes as a result of the federal government's announcement to declare a public holiday in honor of Allama Iqbal Day, marking the birth anniversary of Pakistan's national poet, Allama Muhammad Iqbal, who was born on November 9, 1877.
The State Bank of Pakistan, in a circular released on November 3, communicated the holiday to all banking institutions including banks, development finance institutions, and microfinance banks. On this day, banking services that involve public dealings will also be suspended. Normal banking operations are anticipated to resume on Tuesday, November 10.
