Hello
Apart from Karipur, Kannur and Kochi are the two other embarkation points in Kerala.
Abdullakutty said that Modi had told him that only those who have the call of Allah might go for Haj.
The app will provide the necessary information and direct access to important services like training modules, flight details, accommodation, emergency helpline, and health among others at the fingertips of the pilgrims.
The Haj pilgrimage air ticket rates from other airports in Kerala such as Kochi and Kannur are between Rs 86,000 and Rs 89,000.
The MPs said Union Minister for Minority Affairs, Smriti Irani has given confirmation on reducing the rates.
The passengers would then have no rights to claim them, if confiscated.
Nearly 1.4 lakh pilgrims will visit Mecca in the coming months.
Kochi, Kozhikode and Kannur are among the 25 Hajj embarkation points in the country.
From Kochi, pilgrims can travel to Medina from May 31 to June 16. After the rituals, they can return between July 14 and August 13.
With the ministry setting the age limit, India has re-invited applications from those wishing to undertake the pilgrimage.
