KARACHI, Nov 23: The sewage spilling out of a broken line near the Baitul Hujjaj at Haji Camp is causing immense hardship and inconvenience to the intending pilgrims and their families visiting the facility, as well as to those staying there in wait for their flights to Saudi Arabia.

Pointing out this, city chief of Jamaat-i-Islami Dr Merajul Huda Siddiqui also criticised Rangers personnel for causing troubles to the pilgrims and other visitors by blocking the road housing the Baitul Hujjaj, instead of protecting them and facilitating movement of pedestrians and vehicular traffic.
