Prime
Minister Mostafa Madbouli yesterday Saturday 24/06/2023 reviewed steps of a
strategy drawn up to relocate part of the graves in Cairo's Salah Salem area,
after undergoing assessment and feasibility studies, in line with the
implementation of the project of Cairo's cemetery of the immortals.
The "Cemetery of the Immortals" will be a memorial to honor the renowned and great people in the Egyptian history. The remains of Egypt's iconic figures will be relocated to this cemetery by competent experts.
This came during an inspection tour by Madbouli of Salah Salem graves, upon directives of President Abdel Fattah El Sisi, where he was accompanied by Local Development Minister Hesham Amna, Housing, Utilities and Urban Communities Minister Assem el Gazzar and Cairo Governor Khaled Abdel Aal.
Madbouli pointed out that Sisi’s directives aim to establish the cemetery of the immortals to honor the great figures who sacrificed their lives to defend Egypt.
He added that the state is paying greater attention to restoring the splendor of Historic Cairo's areas, in a move meant at preserving Egypt's heritage.
