The office timing for all government, semi-government, autonomous and semi-autonomous organisations has been fixed for the month of Ramadan.
The public administration ministry announced the timing in an order on Tuesday following its approval by the cabinet last week.
The rescheduled office timing will be from 9:00am to 3:30pm on the working days with a 15-minute prayer break from 1:15pm to 1:30pm every day.
The order says banks, insurance companies, other financial institutions, postal services, railway, hospitals, mills and factories, state-owned industries and other emergency services will re-fix their office timings as per their own rules and considering public interest.
The Supreme Court will re-fix its own and lower courts' timings for the fasting month.
