Lahore: Lahore High Court (LHC) Friday allowed restaurants to change the working hours of restaurants in view of the month of Ramadan.

Justice Shahid Kareem heard the petitions of citizen Haroon Farooq and others for the remedy of smog.

A petitioner's lawyer said that the problem with restaurants is, if they get closed at 11 pm, how they can be opened at Suhoor time.

Justice Shahid allowed the restaurants to remain operational from Iftar to Suhoor.

It is pertinent to note that LHC had issued orders to close all the restaurants in Lahore at 10 pm to prevent smog. Later the court extended an hour and ordered the restaurants to be closed by 11 pm.
