The minister highlighted that Pakistan provides the most cost-effective Hajj package globally, especially considering the current dollar exchange rate.

The Additional Secretary elaborated on the refund details, noting that the amount varies based on individual circumstances. A small percentage (3%) of pilgrims will receive Rs140,000, while a larger group (23%) will get Rs75,000.

Additionally, Rs3,000 pilgrims will be refunded Rs50,000. The Additional Secretary assured that the refunds will start being deposited into pilgrims’ accounts by Friday.

Hussain also clarified that this year’s Hajj package costs between Rs1,050,000 and Rs1,175,000, which is Rs25,000 less per person compared to last year’s initial rates.

He mentioned that the government’s Hajj quota is now fully booked and no further applications will be accepted, though the hardship quota remains open.

The minister also expressed gratitude for the cooperation extended by Saudi Arabia’s Minister of Hajj and Umrah, Dr Tawfiq Al-Rabiah.
