Islamabad DC dismisses notification falsely announcing office closures in twin cities from April 20

Islamabad Deputy Commissioner Irfan Nawaz Memon on Sunday dismissed as fake on Sunday a notification announcing that all public and private offices in the federal capital and Rawalpindi would remain closed from April 20 until further notice.

In a social media post on X, Memon said, “Citizens are requested to refrain from sharing unverified or fake news. Please rely only on official handles of the district administration, Islamabad, for authentic updates.”

The statement comes as several other measures have been taken ahead of a possible second round of talks in Islamabad.
