How many holidays will Pakistanis get on Eidul Adha?
There will be a total of three holidays in honor of Eidul Adha on June 29, 30, and July 1, according to the notification.

Eid al-Adha or the Feast of Sacrifice is the second of the two main holidays celebrated in Islam (the other being Eid al-Fitr). Part of their meat is consumed by the family which offers the animal, while the rest of the meat is distributed to the poor and the needy. Sweets and gifts are given, and extended family members are typically visited and welcomed.[6]
In the Islamic lunar calendar, Eid al-Adha falls on the tenth day of Dhu al-Hijjah and lasts for four days. In the international (Gregorian) calendar, the dates vary from year to year, shifting approximately 11 days earlier each year.
