It is pertinent to mention that Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has restored the Iqbal Day Public Holiday after it was suspended by the PML-N Government in 2015.
Therefore, Iqbal Day will be observed as a bank holiday as commercial banks have also announced that it will remain closed on 9 November 2022.
