All possible measures would be taken by the government to promote religious tourism in Pakistan, he added. Providing the detail of the committee he chairs, he stated Sheikh Rashid Ahmad, Nur-ul-Haq Qadri, Shafqat Mehmood, Hashim Jawan Bakht, Raja Yasir Humayyon and Sahibzada Saeedul Hassan were on the committee.
