We are approaching the last 10 days of the blessed month of Ramadan. My sincere wish and plea is for the honorable members of the People's Majlis to continue setting an example for the public during the last 10 days of the blessed month of Ramadan. To attain the rewards and blessings of this month in its fullest form, I urge you to work tirelessly with courage, determination, sincerity, and honesty. May this blessed month of Ramadan be a joyous and prosperous time for us in every way, and may Allah pave all paths for us to receive the full rewards and blessings of this month. That is my sincere prayer. The next parliamentary session will be held on Monday, 7 April 2025, at 9am."
Speaker of the People's Majlis, Abdul Raheem Abdulla
Parliamentary sittings have been suspended while some bills of public concern remain unfinished. During the fasting month, sittings were conducted for less than 30 minutes. Some lawmakers have also expressed concerns that many committee works are not progressing.
In connection with the last 10 days of Ramadan, the government will halt services from March 20, and after the Eid holiday, it will resume on April 5.
Making the last 10 days of Ramadan public holidays was a presidential pledge of President Dr. Mohamed Muizzu. Although these days have been declared as holidays for government employees, some employees are required to work to provide essential services. Therefore, the government has decided to provide compensation for these employees.
