Hajj Corporation has said that Pilgrimage of the people who has made the payment to the Hajj Corporation would now be coming faster with the Saudi Arabia increasing the quota for Hajj Pilgrimage from the Maldives to 2000.
Half of the previous quota of 500 goes to the Hajj Corporation. And with the quota increased and 1000 going to the Hajj Corporation, the Hajj Pilgrimage from the Maldives is full up to 2018.
Managing Director of the Hajj Corporation, Yaameen Idris told Sun Media tonight that with the new change, the people in line for Hajj for next year can go this year and those in line for 2018 can go on the pilgrimage next year.
“Some people would expect to go sooner. Others don’t want to go with the time closer. Going like that, a large portion we’ll be able to send.” He said.
The Managing Director of the Corporation said that people are being sent in order they made the payment and over 1000 people have already made the payment to make the Hajj Pilgrimage.
