Hajj Registration Time Will Not Be Extended: Faridul Haque

The hajj registration time will not be extended further though the quota of pilgrims has not been fulfilled.

State Minister for Religious Affairs Md Faridul Haque Khan announced this at the opening ceremony of ‘e-hajj BD’ app at the Secretariat on Wednesday.

The government extended the registration deadline for hajj for nine times in a bid to fulfill the registration quota, but it has been fulfilled yet. So, hajj registration time will not be extended further. And it is not possible to reduce the cost of hajj packages, he said.

According to the agreement, 15,000 people will be able to go to hajj under government management while 112,198 can go under private management.
