KANDAHAR CITY (Pajhwok): Construction work will be resumed soon after long years to complete the grand mosque named after Hazrat Omar bin Khetab (RWA) in the capital of southern Kandahar province.
The mosque “Jamia Omar” famously known as “Omar Bin Khetab Grand Mosque” was founded during the Taliban regime but was left incomplete after the fall of the Taliban.
However, in 2011 construction was resumed and the mosque was 80 percent completed in one year.
On Tuesday (Feb 6), a delegation from capital Kabul arrived in Kandahar City to assess the mosque . . .
