Spokesman Salman Murad Al-Kandari told Al-Rai daily, after the aforementioned period the applicants will be selected according to the specified conditions, and then an exhibition will be held that includes Hajj campaigns approved by the ministry.<\/p>\n
Al-Kandari added that the pilgrim who is nominated for Hajj can choose the campaign that suits his needs and desires and determine the appropriate mechanism for paying 25 percent of the fees to ensure registration in the caravan.<\/p>\n
