ISLAMABAD: The Ministry of Information and Broadcasting on Tuesday rebutted a fake notification circulating in different sections of media regarding a public holiday on May 25  Pakistan Martyrs’ Day.

Sharing the notification about the public holiday, the ministry took to Twitter and said: “Disseminating Fake News is not only unethical and illegal but it is also disservice to the nation”.  “It is the responsibility of everyone to reject irresponsible behaviour. Reject Fake News,” the information ministry said in the tweet. A day earlier, the federal government decided to observe “Pakistan Martyrs Day” on Thursday, May 25th at General Headquarters (GHQ) in honour of the selfless sacrifices made by the martyrs of Pakistan.
