ISLAMABAD: The central and regional office-bearers of the Hajj Organisers Association of Pakistan (HOAP) on Sunday praised the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia for restoring Pakistan’s hajj quota.
According to a presser, HOAP Central Chairman Haji Sanaullah, KP Chairman Haji Masood Shinwari and former KP chairman Haji Waheedullah Afridi said Saudi Arabia has restored the 20 percent hajj quota which was deducted during 2013-2016.
Sanaullah said the restoration would enable more Pakistanis to perform hajj.
The HOAP office-bearers also said that Religious Affairs Minister Muhammad Yousaf also raised voice for the restoration of the quota.
They vowed for a more successful hajj operation in 2017, adding that the private hajj companies would also provide best facilities to the Pakistani pilgrims.
During 2013, due to the construction and expansion work at Masjid Al-Haram, the Saudi government reduced the Pakistan hajj quota for three years which later extended to 2016.
