He, therefore, advised all intending pilgrims to pay up their balance on or before that date, or forfeit their seats, warning that there would be no extension of the deadline.

The Secretary requested prospective pilgrims who had completed payment of the fare, to submit their e-passport to the Board before June 16.

He expressed gratitude to the state government for its support to the Board towards ensuring hitch-free preparations for the Hajj. A total of 2,168 and 20 officials from the state are expected to perform the pilgrimage.
