ISLAMABAD: The federal government has declared Monday, November 9, a public holiday across Pakistan to mark the birth anniversary of Allama Muhammad Iqbal, the country\u2019s national poet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Cabinet Division has issued a notification confirming the holiday under the government\u2019s public holidays schedule for 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
All government and private institutions will remain closed on the occasion, according to a press release issued by the Cabinet Division.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The State Bank of Pakistan has also confirmed that it will remain closed on November 9 on account of Allama Iqbal Day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Iqbal Day is observed annually on November 9 to commemorate the birth of the poet and philosopher, who was born in Sialkot on November 9, 1877.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Iqbal is remembered for his poetry and philosophical thought, as well as his role in shaping the political consciousness of Muslims in the Subcontinent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In his 1930 address at the All-India Muslim League session, he emphasised the need to secure political rights for Muslims, a contribution later recognised as part of the intellectual foundations of Pakistan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
