Thousands of Umra pilgrims were stranded at Jeddah airport due to non-confirmation of their return tickets. The unruly mob had turned to the path of protest forcing the government of Pakistan to sort out the ways to make their voyage to the Holy Land hassle-free. In this connection, the Premier ordered the religious ministry to issue Umrah passports to the pilgrims; Chairman PIA has recently promised that the national flag carrier will issue confirmed return tickets to Umrah pilgrims.
It is hoped that these steps will alleviate the problems of pilgrims and prove a milestone towards our emergence as a disciplined nation.
