Shiite News: Iranian Interior Minister Ahmad Wahidi while visiting the Shalamcha border said: I have visited four borders Khosravi, Mehran, Chazaba and Shalamcha from where pilgrims go to Karbala to observe the Chehlum of Imam Hussain (AS).
Some such measures have been taken for visitors at these borders this year, which will provide a lot of convenience to the visitors.
This year, Khosravi, Shalamcha, Chazaba, Mehran, Bashmaq and Tamarchin borders are ready to serve pilgrims for Arbaeen.
The Somar border is ready for the movement of processions etc. and officials with procession equipment will pass through this border without any problem.
As compared to last year, the arrangements have increased considerably this year so that the visitors will not face any difficulties in this summer.
Visitors will have to wait less at the borders, one of the main objectives of the Ministry of Interior is to allow the visitors to cross the borders in the shortest possible time.
During Arbaeen this year, Chazaba border has been designated for foreign pilgrims and adequate arrangements have been made for the movement of pilgrims on this border.
The nation and government of Iraq have organized Arbaeen Hussaini in the best way in the past years and have fully paid the right to host it.
The main focus of the meeting between the Iranian and Iraqi officials was how to make the journey of the pilgrims easier.
This service has no borders, no particular country, religion or belief has been kept in view, but this service is the same for all.
