Public offices in Peshawar failed to resume normal operations, even after the conclusion of the Eid holidays.
According to details, many government employees were observed exchanging Eid greetings, while several offices remained locked with staff absent.
The city’s public sector had been closed for five days due to a combination of two weekly holidays and three days off for Eid.
However, even following the holiday period, offices were far from fully functional.
A number of employees who did arrive at work spent their time exchanging festive greetings rather than engaging in official duties.
“Although the holidays have ended, the offices are still not fully operational,” stated Malik Naveed, Chairman of the Workers Union. “Many offices remain empty, and those who did show up are not working.”
Furthermore, numerous senior officers were also absent from their offices, leaving them locked for the day.
“Attendance was low today, and many officers were missing from their respective offices,” reported Syed Waqar Hassan, General Secretary of the Workers Union.
