Prime Minister Mohammed Shia Al-Sudani announced the success of the security and service plans for the Arbaeen pilgrimage, during a press conference he held in Karbala Governorate, today, Sunday.
Al-Sudani appreciated the efforts of the Supreme Security Committee headed by the Minister of Interior, and all officers and members in ensuring the smooth flow of the visit, which extended over vast areas and thousands of kilometers of roads leading to the holy Karbala, as well as the efforts of the local service and administrative institutions in the governorates, and the formations of the various ministries, as more than 53 ministries and agencies participated, in addition to local governments, governors and governorate councils.
Al-Sudani expressed his thanks to the Governor of Karbala and the members of the provincial council for their continuous efforts that complemented the efforts of the ministries and provinces, extending his thanks to the visitors, the Husseini processions and the social activities for their cooperation and partnership with the security and service agencies. He also thanked the Husseini, Abbasi, Kadhimiya and military shrines for their important role, praising the role of the national media in this visit, which represents an opportunity to re-sharpen the spirit of all service teams and review the work and improve the provision of service to the citizen in the upcoming visits.
In order to establish an integrated infrastructure that facilitates the visit, the Prime Minister announced during the conference 37 diverse service projects that will be initiated by the Supreme Committee for Millions of Visits, and more than (3.5) trillion dinars have been allocated for them, distributed among the budgets of ministries and governorates, and include the construction and rehabilitation of ring roads, intersections, bridges, pedestrian bridges and squares, the construction of water complexes and cities for visitors, and service complexes, and they will be initiated in a few weeks.
He pointed out that since the end of the Arbaeen pilgrimage last year, work has begun on rehabilitating the border crossings in Zurbatiyah, Al-Mundhiriyah and Al-Shaib, establishing large exchange yards to facilitate the transportation of visitors, and projects related to rehabilitating the roads linking Karbala to other governorates. The government has also made progress in the Karbala-Najaf Metro project, while the Karbala International Airport project has reached advanced stages and will be opened next year.
He stressed that the government took the initiative to establish the Supreme Committee for Million-Pilgrim Visits, to be the permanent organizer and supervisor of this great effort, indicating that this occasion is no longer merely ideological, but rather a national epic that witnessed the presence of our people from all religions and sects in more than 50 processions providing services to the visitors.
