Govt postpones Hajj 2025 lucky draw
MNP – In light of a lower-than-expected number of Hajj applications, the Ministry of Religious Affairs has decided to extend the deadline for submission of applications and postpone the Hajj lucky draw.
According to ministry sources, the deadline for receiving Hajj applications under the government Hajj scheme is likely to be extended by 13 days. Initially scheduled for December 6, the Hajj lucky draw is now proposed to take place on December 19.
So far, approximately 55,000 applications have been submitted under the government Hajj scheme. The ministry hopes the extension will encourage more applicants to take advantage of the opportunity.
The final announcement regarding the extended deadline and revised draw is expected to be made tomorrow.
