The agencies facing disciplinary action have been granted a 10-day grace period to rectify the identified violations. Upon fulfilment of the required standards and conditions, their agreements will be reinstated.<\/h4>\n<h4 data-start=\"726\" data-end=\"1103\">In an official statement, the Ministry clarified that the affected agencies had failed to provide services to Umrah pilgrims in accordance with approved standards. However, the suspension will not impact pilgrims who had already obtained their Umrah visas prior to the enforcement of the ban. Such pilgrims will be allowed to travel to the Kingdom as per their scheduled plans.<\/h4>\n<h4 data-start=\"1105\" data-end=\"1248\">The Ministry further confirmed that during the suspension period, the concerned travel agencies will not be permitted to issue new Umrah visas.<\/h4>\n<h4 data-start=\"1250\" data-end=\"1601\">Officials described the move as a regulatory measure aimed at resolving classification issues and ensuring improved performance in line with approved standards. The Ministry emphasised that if agencies address the deficiencies within the stipulated time, their agreements will be reactivated. Failure to comply may result in further regulatory action.<\/h4>\n<h4 data-start=\"1603\" data-end=\"1832\">The Ministry reiterated that adherence to approved classifications and performance standards is a fundamental regulatory requirement to enhance compliance among service providers and to ensure quality services for Umrah pilgrims.<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u0644\u0646\u062f\u0646 (\u067e\u0648\u0679\u06be\u0648\u0627\u0631 \u0688\u0627\u0679 \u06a9\u0627\u0645 \u2014 \u0645\u062d\u0645\u062f \u0646\u0635\u06cc\u0631 \u0631\u0627\u062c\u06c1 | | 04 \u0645\u0627\u0631\u0686 , 2026) &#8212; \u0633\u0639\u0648\u062f\u06cc \u0639\u0631\u0628 \u06a9\u06cc \u0648\u0632\u0627\u0631\u062a\u0650 \u062d\u062c \u06a9\u06cc \u062c\u0627\u0646\u0628 \u0633\u06d2 \u0639\u0645\u0631\u06c1 \u062e\u0644\u0627\u0641 \u0648\u0631\u0632\u06cc\u0648\u06ba \u067e\u0631 1 \u06c1\u0632\u0627\u0631 800 \u063a\u06cc\u0631\u0645\u0644\u06a9\u06cc \u0679\u0631\u06cc\u0648\u0644 \u0627\u06cc\u062c\u0646\u0633\u06cc\u0648\u06ba \u06a9\u06d2 \u0627\u06cc\u06af\u0631\u06cc\u0645\u0646\u0679 \u0639\u0627\u0631\u0636\u06cc \u0637\u0648\u0631\u067e\u0631\u0645\u0639\u0637\u0644 \u06a9\u0631\u0646\u06d2 \u06a9\u0627 \u0627\u0639\u0644\u0627\u0646 \u06a9\u0631\u062f\u06cc\u0627 \u06af\u06cc\u0627\u06d4 \u0633\u0639\u0648\u062f\u06cc \u062e\u0628\u0631\u0631\u0633\u0627\u06ba \u0627\u06cc\u062c\u0646\u0633\u06cc \u0627\u06cc\u0633 \u067e\u06cc \u0627\u06d2 \u06a9\u06d2 \u0645\u0637\u0627\u0628\u0642 \u0648\u0632\u0627\u0631\u062a\u0650 \u062d\u062c \u06a9\u0627 \u06a9\u06c1\u0646\u0627 \u06c1\u06d2 &hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":31,"featured_media":61801,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[24,47,13,933],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-61800","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-dailynews","category-headline","category-overseas-news","category-pothwarallnews"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/pothwar.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/61800","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/pothwar.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/pothwar.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pothwar.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/31"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pothwar.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=61800"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/pothwar.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/61800\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":61810,"href":"https:\/\/pothwar.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/61800\/revisions\/61810"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pothwar.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/61801"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/pothwar.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=61800"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pothwar.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=61800"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pothwar.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=61800"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
