      <title>Banks to remain closed on Monday</title>
      <link>https://english.aaj.tv/news/30345031/banks-to-remain-closed-on-monday</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The State Bank of Pakistan has announced that the central bank would remain closed on December 25 (Monday) being public holiday on the occasions of Quaid-i-Azam Day and Christmas, as declared by the government.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The nation would celebrate the 147th birth anniversary of the founder of Pakistan, Quaid-i-Azam Mohammad Ali Jinnah, next week.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Last week, the federal government &lt;a href="https://www.aajenglish.tv/news/30344283/christian-employees-to-get-salary-pension-before-christmas"&gt;announced&lt;/a&gt; that its employees belonging to the Christian community would get their salaries and pensions on December 20, five days before Christmas.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Christmas preparations have gained momentum in the twin cities. Homes and churches adorn themselves with the Christmas trees, flags, twinkling lights, and radiant electric lamps.&lt;/p&gt;
