Around more than 200 pilgrims from Sindh, Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa are left stranded at Taftan Border. Rough surroundings, weather conditions are having a toll on innocent children and women suffering extreme heat.

According to reports received, Maulana Syed Ali Gohar Naqvi said that pilgrims coming from across Pakistan are stuck amid Taftan border as they await NOC from Pakistani Government. They are left under the desolate sky for days under extreme conditions with no water or shelter. Women and children fell unconscious due these state of affairs.
