First Batch Of Hajj Pilgrims Depart From Kashmir

The first batch of Hajj pilgrims departed from Hajj house Srinagar on Sunday.

Emotional scenes were seen at the Hajj house, since Hajj commenced after two years of COVID-19 lockdown across the globe.

This year only 5,196 pilgrims from J&K will be performing Hajj, less then half the number of pilgrims that performed Hajj in 2019.

Following COVID-19 pandemic Saudi Government has restricted number of pilgrims to one million and set age limit for pilgrims at 65.

Hajj is one of the 5 basic pillars of Islam. Muslims desire Hajj pilgrimage once in a life time, how ever with the passage of time for many it seems like a distant dream.
