PESHAWAR: Eid-ul-Fitr will be celebrated across Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province on Sunday (August 19), Senior Minister Bashir Bilour made the formal announcement on behalf of the provincial government.

 

The Minister regretted that once again the Central Ruet-e-Hilal Committee did not take into account the witnesses reports confirming the sighting of the moon coming from every part of the province.

 

He said 23 reports for sighting of Shawwal moon were received from eyewitnesses in various parts of the province including Dera Islmail Khan, Bannu and Bajaur.

they don't have any solution for increasing violence, inflation, unemployment, ........ but still they want to look as if they are doing something. Then we have to listen such statements

Stupid, archaic mullahs and equally stupid, bloody politicians that insist on mocking an equally ignorant public that keeps electing them again and again and again. One wonders where to apportion blame. In this day and age when one can scientifically and accurately determine the sunset and sunrise on e.g. January 25, 2027, Pakistanis insist on making themselves the laughing stock of the world.

Moon is sighted in complete world and KPK, but not in rest of pakistan. Allah has created two moons, one for the world including KPK and other one for rest of pakistan courtesy Mufti Muneeb

As long as Mr.Bilour is senior minister this province will have Eid as he desires.he knows how to play politics.playing in the hands of mullah's when required andwith the masses.he also knows how to convert public property in his name.take the case of university town club.

Pashtuns will do Eid on Sunday, Hazara people will do it Monday, Punjabis will do it on Tuesday, Sindhis will do it Wednesday and Balochis will do it on Friday. Why can't the people of Pakistan unite as one, wonder why the rest of the world is laughing at us.

I don't know why they don't take our witnesses. And how come the people only in KPK see the moon. This issue need to be resolved for ever. We need a system, like following Saudi for these things.
