Pakistan’s Ministry of Religious Affairs and Interfaith Harmony has introduced a one-day, one-window operation for Hajj pilgrims across the country. This initiative aims to streamline essential procedures such as training, vaccination, and document issuance into a single day at designated camps.
The first phase of this operation began on Wednesday, with camps opening in major cities including Islamabad, Lahore, Karachi, Peshawar, Quetta, Faisalabad, Multan, Sialkot, Sukkur, and Rahim Yar Khan. Approximately 119,000 intending pilgrims are expected to benefit from the initiative.
Pilgrims will receive all necessary services under one roof, including Hajj training sessions, mandatory vaccinations, air tickets, visas, identification lockets, luggage tags, and medical kits. The ministry has advised pilgrims to bring their original national identity card and computerized bank receipt with photograph when visiting the camps. Special bank counters have been set up at the camps for currency exchange.
