Speaking on Haj review meeting, Union Minister Kiren Rijiju on July 04 informed about they will start accepting Haj applications for 2026 within a week. He also said that the entire process will be digital. "... Within a week, we will start accepting Haj applications for 2026... I request people to fill out their applications on time so they do not face any problems in the future. The Saudi Arabian government has set many strict deadlines... I strictly instruct the tour operators to adhere to the set timelines. I have directed the Hajj Committee of India to deposit the payment to the Saudi Arabian government before the deadline... I have been given suggestions regarding the accommodations. We are considering the request for separate accommodations for men and women... A companion is mandatory to look after pilgrims above 65 years of age...We will also offer an option for a short Hajj. The entire process will be digital. If there is a single name in the passport, it does not read while processing in Saudi Arabia. I request people to ensure that if there is a single name on their passport, it has to be corrected... We will provide food choices state-wise so that pilgrims can eat food to their taste...," said Kiren Rijiju.
