Beginning on July 18th, Haj pilgrims will begin arriving

Passes for relatives who want to host Haj visitors must be picked up at their local District Commissioner’s office.

As Haj flights begin arriving in Srinagar on July 18, relatives of Kashmir Division pilgrims (other than those from Srinagar) who wish to meet them at Srinagar International Airport can start picking up vehicle passes from the offices of their respective Deputy Commissioners on July 13.

According to a government release, families of pilgrims from UT Ladakh, Jammu Division, and the district of Srinagar may pick up their documents three days before the pilgrims’ planned arrival at Haj House in Bemina, Srinagar.

A xeroxed copy of the attendant’s or relative’s identification card with the cover number is required in exchange for the passes.
