Iran said that it suspects that the temporary ceasefire with Israel in America’s mediation will last long. The Muslim country has indicated that if the ceasefire breaks, it is ready to answer.

Mausvi spoke on phone with Saudi defense minister

Conflict started with Israeli attack on 13 June

Saudi arabia work visa: Saudi Arabia has lifted the temporary ban on block work visas for India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and other 12 countries after Haj-2025. Saudi’s Ministry of Human Resources and Social Development has confirmed this decision. This has given a new hope towards the migrant workers towards employment.

14 countries of the world will get the benefit of removing block work visa ban. It will get India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Egypt, Ethiopia, Indonesia, Iraq, Jordan, Morocco, Nigeria, Sudan, Tunisia, Yemen and Algeria.

What is a block work visa?

Block Work Visa is a central visa system of Saudi Arabia under which companies there are allowed to appoint a certain number of foreign employees. This visa is specially used for large construction and service sector companies. A large number of workers are used to recruit pre-informed numbers. Its help helps to make the visa process faster and structured. The Sudden Government temporarily stopped this visa quota in January 2025 to avoid crowds and chaos during Haj.

Millions of workers will benefit from removing the ban
Thousands of skilled workers affected by this decision of Saudi government will now get new work opportunities. This is a relief news for those whose appointments were canceled or postponed due to the Haj-seas. This decision is especially beneficial for India, as the number of Indian workers in Saudi Arabia is more than 26 lakhs. Thousands of Indians go in search of employment in Saudi every year. The growth rate of overseas Indians in Sudi has been more than 10%.

Why was it stopped?
Over the years, it has been observed that many work visa holders also try to perform Haj, causing a crowd of pilgrims out of registration. In 2024, due to heat and chaos, many deaths occurred during Haj, due to which the pilgrims were considered without legitimate permission or registration. Due to this, the Saudi government takes many stringent steps on work visas, travel permits and maize entry every year during Haj.

Pakistan Beggars Deported: On the one hand, the Government of Pakistan is looting the terrorist by taking money from the IMF, on the other hand their general public is going abroad and begging.

Saudi Arabia has removed a total of 5,033 Pakistani beggars from their country in the last 16 months.

More than 5 thousand Pakistanis were submitted

Mohsin Naqvi, an internal minister of the Government of Pakistan, introduced the data in the National Assembly, stating how many Pakistanis were returned from abroad on the charge of begging. A total of 5,402 Pakistanis have been driven away from Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Malaysia, Oman, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) since January 2024. In five other countries, 369 Pakistanis were caught begging.

Pakistani beggar sent back from Iraq

According to the Pakistani government, the highest number of 247 Pakistani beggars were sent back from Iraq after Saudi’s Arabia. Mohsin Naqvi has admitted that the UAE lifted the issue vigorously and has imposed strict restrictions on visas for Pakistani citizens. In the last 3 years, 50000 Pakistanis have been found begging in countries around the world.

How many Pakistani beggar was submitted this year

According to Mohsin Naqvi, 552 Pakistani citizens were sent back to Pakistan on charges of begging from different countries in 2025 till now i.e. 4 months. According to the report of Pakistani newspaper Dawn, in 2024, many countries sent 4850 Pakistanis back on charges of begging. People of Pakistan take a visa to go to Saudi Arabia in the name of religious journey and start begging there.

After seeing the data of the Government of Pakistan, it is found that there is not a single area of ​​Pakistan where people are not beggars. Pakistan says that the people of its Punjab and Sindh province are rich, while according to government data, the people of these two provinces were also caught begging and then drove away.

Saudi Arabia Ban Visa for Pakistan: Saudi Arabia has imposed a temporary ban on giving visas to 14 countries of the world including Pakistan. On the matter, Pakistani woman YouTuber Nila Khan interacted with Awam on a visa related issue. He asked Awam that Saudi Arabia is a Muslim country. Despite this, he has stopped giving visas to Pakistan. On this, a Pakistani woman said that the people of Pakistan go to Saudi Arabia and begging. They do not go there and contribute in any way. Perhaps this is the reason why Saudi Arabia has refused to give a visa. However, despite this, this is not good news for us. This is a very shocking decision from Saudi Arabia. After a few days the journey of Haj is going to start. Before that, this decision will cause trouble for many people.

Another Pakistan person said on the issue of visa that people of the world burns Pakistan. Saudi Arabia also no longer wants to give visas to Pakistanis. We have a lot of talent. We go anywhere where we do amazing. Despite this, Pakistanis have been maligned everywhere. However, Nila cut the person’s words and said that if this is the case then why are we not being given a visa? He said that Saudi Arabia had caught thousands of beggars last year. Most of them were people of Pakistani origin.
