Public counters of all embassies have been shut down temporarily due to Tahirul Qadri’s long march, inconveniencing scores of people who had to leave the country.
Some people had booked seats on various airlines after sending in their passports and documents to these embassies. Others had been rushing to the Saudi embassy to obtain visas for Umra. Due to the temporary closure, a lot of crowding in these offices is expected when embassies reopen.
Travel agents who had formed groups of pilgrims for Umra had to face their wrath as they could not depart for the pilgrimage on time.
