The Islamabad High Court has announced a revised winter vacations schedule for the federal capital’s district courts.
In a notification released on Monday, the Registrar Office confirmed that the East and West district courts will now observe holidays from December 24, 2025 to January 1, 2026.
The courts will resume regular operations on January 2, 2026. The updated schedule replaces an earlier notification that had set the holiday period from January 1 to January 8, 2026.

For God’s sake the courts are not primary schools who need extreme weather vacations to save children from exposure. This practice from Gora’s time should come to an end now. Given the number of pending cases their weekends should be reduced to Sundays only.
