ISLAMABAD: Federal Ombudsman Ejaz Ahmad Qureshi intervened to resolve the long-standing issue of affixing of e-protector stamp on the passports of Pakistanis intending to proceed abroad for employment or higher education. As a result, the Bureau of Immigration has now started online e-protector facility also, which is available at the airports too. It may be informed that it is obligatory for all those travelling to middle eastern or other countries for employment to get the protector stamps affixed on their passports otherwise they have not been granted permission to travel abroad and many had to return from the airports due to its non-availability.
