The Federal Minister for Science and Technology Fawad Chaudhry on Thursday said that the holy month of Ramadan is expected to begin in Pakistan from April 25.
Taking to twitter, Fawad said: “The moon of holy month of c will be sighted in Pakistan on the evening of April 24 and the Ramadan is likely to start from April 25.”

Last year in May, Chaudhry announced Pakistan’s first-ever moon-sighting website. This was followed by the launch of the country’s first-ever moon-sighting app to share real-time information about the moon.
