KARACHI, Sept 7: Sindh Chief Minister Syed Qaim Ali Shah has withdrawn his government’s Saturday notification declaring Monday as a holiday in the province.

Accordingly, all offices, autonomous and semi-autonomous bodies, corporations, local councils and public and private educational institutions will remain open.

The government withdrew the notification about declaring Monday as a holiday after Mr Zardari said it was time to work hard and solve people’s problems and not to enjoy holiday, the chief minister’s special assistant for media Waqar Mehdi told AFP.

“He directed us that there is enough work to do and a lot of problems to solve, which require little leisure and more work. That’s why the government withdrew the holiday notice.”
