Hussain also highlighted improvements for this year’s Hajj pilgrims, ensuring better facilities at the same cost. Pilgrims will receive three meals daily, a significant upgrade from previous arrangements.
Mina’s accommodations will feature gypsum-built tents, replacing the cloth tents used last year. Further enhancements include air-conditioned lodging, and replacing the room coolers provided in the past.
One of the most notable additions is the “Road to Makkah” initiative allowing pilgrims to complete immigration procedures in Pakistan and deliver their luggage directly to their Saudi hotels.
