It has been made a holiday (Atleast in Sindh and KP, not sure about the other provinces) after the Pakistani Hindu community asked for it.

It's not a public holiday but all Hindus are entitled to be given festive leave by their employers around the diwali festival.

That's good. Its not just about one religion, it is the thousands of years old tradition of the land.

Only for Hindu community

Dewali is a Hindu tradition. We respect your beliefs but you also need to cut this land wand crap. Most of us have no clue about what dewali entails. Hindus here get a day off, thats as fair as it can and should get. We already got too many holidays. We need to cut them down.

There is no holiday in all over the Pakistan. It is only in Sindh Province.
