Govt reduces general hajj package cost: Faridul
Religious Affairs Minister Md Faridul Haque Khan today said the government has reduced the cost of general hajj package compared to last year despite the high price of dollar.

Faridul said the government is working so that pilgrims can perform hajj at fair a cost. The government is also working to ease the official works of pilgrims and it is determined to provide the best service to them.
Religious affairs secretary A Hamid Zamadder presided over the training programme while additional secretary (hajj) Md Matiul Islam, additional secretaries Md Nayeb Ali Mandal and Dr Md Manjurul Haque and Dhaka Hajj Office director Muhammad Kamruzzaman, among others, addressed it.
