Key points
- Sindh has declared a province-wide school and college holiday on March 11 for Youm-e-Ali.
- The decision covers both public and private institutions and follows an official education committee notification.
The Sindh government has announced that all public and private schools and colleges across the province will remain closed on March 11 in observance of Youm-e-Ali. The holiday falls on the 21st of Ramadan and was notified following a decision taken by the provincial education steering committee.
Authorities said the closure applies to educational institutions throughout Sindh. The observance marks the martyrdom of Hazrat Ali (RA), a day on which processions and religious gatherings are held in several parts of the country.
The development comes as education schedules are also being adjusted elsewhere. Geo News noted separately that federal authorities in Islamabad have already announced spring holidays later in March for institutions operating under the Federal Directorate of Education.
