Srinagar, Feb 10: Hajj 2023 forms will be available online free of cost from on Friday onwards on the official website of Hajj Committee of India (HCoI).
“Hajj forms have been made available on the official website of HcOI: https://hajcommittee.gov.in/haf23,” news agency KNO quoted HCoI Member, Er Aijaz Hussain as having said. He said the forms are absolutely free of cost as already announced by the HCoI under its Haj policy 2023.
Er Aijaz said all the steps will be taken to provide as much as possible relief to the pilgrims performing Hajj 2023. He said that under the Hajj policy 2023, 25 Hajj Embankment points will be set up across the country to facilitate the pilgrims by all means. This year, as per the bilateral agreement between Government of India and Saudi Government, over 1, 75000 pilgrims will perform the holy pilgrimage of Hajj 2023. Pertinently, HCoI has already abolished the VIP quota under which 5 to 10 persons were allowed to perform the pilgrimage. This year, there is no such quota. Er Aijaz reiterated that this year, pilgrims above 70 years of age will be given priority.
He said HCoI is taking every step to make Hajj 2023 cheaper with all possible best facilities available for the pilgrims visiting both holy cities of Makkah and Madina.
