Direct answer

Check the current rule with the relevant provincial or local authority and ask the venue how it applies to your date and location.

Request the applicable law or notification rather than relying on another city's practice or an old social media post. Confirm permitted hours, food restrictions and any event-specific approvals before finalising contracts. Do not assume one timing rule covers every Pakistani jurisdiction. If official material is unclear or unavailable, seek competent local guidance instead of presenting a guessed restriction as settled law.
