Hajj Ability Initiative Details with 50 Visas and Lottery
The article centered on the "Hajj by Ability" initiative launched by the General Union of Tourism Chambers, aimed at assisting citizens unable to perform the pilgrimage due to high costs. The expenses have exceeded 350,000 Egyptian pounds for airline tickets and 260,000 pounds for land travel. The initiative involves allocating around 50 visas out of a total of 40,000 visas granted to the tourism sector, with beneficiaries selected through a lottery in coordination with the Ministry of Social Solidarity to ensure eligibility. This program seeks to enable low-income individuals to perform Hajj by financing travel companies and hotels, without disrupting the sector's operations. Implementation is scheduled to begin the following year, given the approaching Hajj season and the necessary procedures.
