Minority Federation seeks charge of arrangements for Haj pilgrims

Lucknow, Oct 31 (UNI) All India Minority Federation has asked the Central and the state governments to hand it over the charge of making arrangements for the Haj pilgrims.

''The pilgrims are faced with one or the other difficulty every year...the Central government spends crores of rupees in the form of subsidy for the Haj pilgrims, but still they have to suffer due to mismanagement,'' Ehtisham Mirza, the secretary of the federation, said after a meet here.

The federation can provide every facility to the pilgrims effectively and also save money, he claimed.
