Pakistan Economic Crisis: Pakistan, which is on the verge of bankruptcy, is unable to get help even from Muslim countries. Pakistani rulers are trying to increase relations with Islamic countries like Saudi Arabia, Turkiye and United Arab Emirates (UAE) by talking about Muslim brotherhood, but this is not helping them financially. Now Saudi Arabia’s Aviation Agency General Authority of Civil Aviation (GACA) has given a big blow to Pakistan.
GACA has handed over a notice to Pakistan International Airline (PIA), the state-run airline company of Pakistan, to pay the dues of $ 48 million. If Pakistan does not pay this amount, then its citizens will not be able to go on Haj pilgrimage.

50 thousand Pakistani Muslims are about to go on Haj
According to the reports in Pakistani media, about 50 thousand Haj pilgrims from Pakistan are going to Mecca and Madina of Saudi Arabia. If the Shahbaz government does not pay the $48 million dues to Saudi Arabia or there is no agreement on this matter, then the problems of these passengers will increase, because all commercial flights coming from Pakistan will be suspended.
