Hajj package goes up by Tk 59,000

Hajj pligrims will have to pay Tk 59,000 in addition to the Hajj package.

 

The executive committee on Hajj management made the announcement on Thursday, following its meeting at the religious affairs ministry.

 

State Minister for Religious Affairs, Faridul Haque Khan, who presided over the meeting, said they were compelled to take the decision for the Hajj package as Saudi authorities recently informed Bangladesh on the increased moallem fees and other expenses.

 

According to the latest decision, an aspiring Haji will have to pay a minimum of Tk 5,22,744 for performing Hajj under private agencies, meaning that he/she will have to pay Tk 1,68,150 more compared to 2020.

 

The state minister for religious affairs today said an aspiring Haji, under government management, will have to pay minimum Tk 5,21,150 which was earlier Tk 4,62,150.
