Interior Minister Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan said on Monday that cellular phones service will not be suspended on Eid-ul-Fitr.
Eid-ul-Fitr marks the end of the holy month of Ramazan for Muslims worldwide.
Chaudhry Nisar advised police officials to stay alert and vigilant to any possibility of terror threat, adding that other steps would be taken to ensure security since cellular services weren’t being suspended.
As per the orders of the Interior Minister, no city will face the suspension of cellular services during Eid.
However, he said that the provincial governments could suspend cellular services if they felt the security situation demanded it.
Last year, cellular services were suspended on the festive day on the orders of the former interior minister Rehman Malik.
