The Punjab government has relaxed restrictions imposed due to smog, allowing the reopening of parks, zoos, playgrounds, and outdoor sports facilities across the province.
According to a notification, entertainment venues such as festivals and exhibitions will also resume operations starting tomorrow, with extended operating hours until 8 PM.
Markets in major cities, including Lahore, Multan, Faisalabad, and Gujranwala, will continue to close by 8 PM, including on weekends. However, essential businesses like pharmacies, grocery stores, bakeries, and tandoors are exempt from this restriction and can operate beyond the set closing time.
