Sources further noted that only 18 lakh rupees has been cleared for the travel agency so far, while no other service provider has received any payment.

The delays are causing operational difficulties, as several vendors support key services such as logistics, accommodation, food, technical arrangements etc., for the pilgrims.

The affected vendors have formally requested the Minister for Minorities Affairs to intervene immediately.

They urged the Minister Mohd Azharuddin to order a detailed enquiry into the delay and ensure that all pending payments are released without discrimination.

Although the Chief Minister has already given a green signal to the overall arrangements, officials said the lack of timely financial clearance continues to impact ongoing preparations at the embarkation point for the coming year.

When asked about the delay, State Hajj Committee Chairman Syed Shah Ghulam Afzal Biabani Rifai Qadri Khusroo Pasha, said he has been regularly following up with the finance department, on clearance of the travel agency’s cheque, and that he too is surprised by the holdup.
