Pakistan’s Head of Tourism Development Organization and Astan Quds Razavi Deputy Custodian Met.

Expressing his happiness over this meeting, Seyyed Morteza Bakhteyari stated, “Pakistani pilgrims’ affection, love, and devotion toward Imam Reza (A.S.) can closely be seen at Razavi sacred premises”. 
He reiterated, “Security, health, and increasing wealth level of the Pakistani pilgrims who tolerate lots of problems to come to Razavi pilgrimage are among the most important issues followed by Astan Quds Razavi custodian”. 
Astan Quds Razavi deputy custodian stated, “Based on the conducted programming and in line with this policy, we are constructing a by-road complex at Mirjaveh border in order to provide Pakistani pilgrims with a short term accommodation possibility”. 
Referring to the ancient and deep ties between Islamic Republic of Iran and Islamic Republic of Pakistan during centuries, he stated, “These connections in cultural, economic, and political areas provide a good ground for more synergy and perfection among Islamic countries”. 
He said, “Religious tourism and visiting the infallible Imams’ (A.S.) shrines creates a very pure and unique atmosphere for developing social relations and also creating more unity among Muslims. It is also a great duty for all responsible people and custodians of this important area to create appropriate grounds for developing culture of pilgrimage as majority of our Sunni brothers are lovers of the household of the Apostle of God (S.A.W.)”. 
Referring to the words of the Supreme Leader among Qur’an reciters, he acknowledged, “In addition to emphasize on the importance of unity among Muslims, the leader elaborated the brilliant results of following pure teachings of Qur’an. The leader also introduced division creation among Sunni, Shia, and other Islamic sects as the plots of world arrogant powers and enemies and warned on the explosions of anti-unity bombs in various countries”. 
Elsewhere in his remarks, Bakhteyari referred to his recent meeting with general commander of Pakistani army and said, “We hope to see a daily increasing number of Razavi pilgrims from Pakistan with regard to the promise made by General Ghamar Javi Bajvah for promoting the safety factor of Pakistani dear pilgrims and also with respect to the acts done by Pakistan’s organization of tourism development”.
He asserted, “Razavi Holy Shrine’s Kouthar Portico has been specialized for the Pakistani pilgrims and it is providing many various cultural and religious programs in Urdu language throughout the year”.  
Expressing his happiness over his presence in illuminated Shrine of Imam Reza (A.S.), the managing director of Pakistan’s organization of tourism development stressed, “Some good agreements have been made to increase airlines and complete the rail way from Pakistan to Taftan which I will seriously follow as soon as I get my country”. 
Abd al-Ghafour Khan who was highly affected by Holy Shrine’s spiritual atmosphere and whose eyes had become tearful for several times during this visit stated, “Most of the Pakistani Muslim people love Imam Reza (A.S.) and we will do our greatest effort to increase the security and wealth level of the Razavi Pilgrims”.
