KARACHI: Eid-ul- Azha is expected to fall on August 22, said Meteorological department on Friday.
The Met Office said there were strong chances of Zil-Haj moon being sighted on August 12.
The Central Ruet-e-Hilal Committee is also likely to sit for moon sighting within a couple of days.
The committee will meet Mufti Munibur Rehman in the chair.
Zonal Ruet-e-Hilal Committees are tasked with collecting evidence of moon sighting from across the country.
