ISLAMABAD, Nov 10 (APP):National Assembly Speaker Sardar Ayaz Sadiq on Monday referred a question concerning the disappearance of pilgrims traveling for Umrah and Ziyarat to the relevant standing committee for further examination.
During Monday’s question hour, Parliamentary Secretary Shamsher Ali Mazari responded to a query raised by MNA Naeema Kishwar Khan, stating that his ministry does not maintain data on individuals undertaking religious pilgrimages.
He clarified that such information, particularly regarding missing Umrah pilgrims, falls under the jurisdiction of immigration authorities.
To address the issue comprehensively, Speaker Sadiq proposed a joint meeting, a suggestion supported by Mazari. The matter was subsequently forwarded to the concerned standing committee for detailed review and follow-up.
