Rajasthan State Haj Committee, on Tuesday announced the names of applicants who will go to Saudi Arabia to perform Haj this year. The committee had organized lottery based on districts at the Haj House to select the fixed quota of 4,265 Haj pilgrims on the basis of Muslim population in the state. The Haj committee had received more then 18,000 applications from all over the state.

The committee official added that the applicants have been sent to district co-ordinators. “This year the number of applications has increased even though the quota remains the same,” said Shabeer Mohammad, a city-based hotel owner.

Nearly, 14,000 applicants who could not make it in the list expressed their disappointment. “It has ruined my dream of performing Haj this year,” said Rashid Hussien, an applicant whose name was not in the list. Those applicants who were not shortlisted in the committee list can now apply for the same with private Haj tour operators.

Meanwhile, this time, 50 fewer Muslims would be able to go to Saudi Arabia for Haj compared to last year. The state Haj committee has selected 218 people from Ajmer to go on Haj. More than 1,250 people had applied from there for this. When people in Dargah Bazaar, Ajmer received the news of only 218 people being selected from there, there was disappointment on most of the faces.
