The aim is to enrich the experience of Umrah pilgrims and visitors and create a devotional atmosphere through hundreds of religious enrichment initiatives and programs during the Umrah season, as well as attract thousands of volunteers to the Two Holy Mosques.
During the launching of the plan at his office, Abdulrahman Al-Sudais, president of the presidency, said the plan aims to promote the points of strength during the Umrah season while maximizing the concept of serving, caring and focusing on the pilgrims.
It seeks to enhance the integrative roles within the Umrah system and coordinate with all government authorities and partners.
He said the presidency is in the process of launching smart religious robots that will provide services to the pilgrims at the Grand Mosque and the Prophet’s Mosque.
