A government order on Monday announced holiday for September 11 albeit with the condition that public servants will have to work on September 24 as compensation. Government employees typically enjoy three-day Eid holiday. This means, government employees are getting a six-day Eid vacation. The announcement came shortly after the Public Administration Ministry proposed declaring holidays on September 11 and 15 to extend the Eid holiday. If September 15 is also declared a holiday, it will mean another nine-day vacation for public servants since the next two days are weekend holiday.
