The Lahore High Court (LHC) on Tuesday summoned a response from the federal government and the Ministry of Religious Affairs over a petition filed in the LHC pleading to stop implementation of Haj Policy 2012.
The petitioner claimed that this year’s Haj policy was not based on merit, adding that the policy will encourage nepotism as it lacks transparency.
The petitioner pleaded the LHC that the implementation on the policy should be stopped.
The LHC approved the petition and directed the federal government and Religious Ministry to submit a response by July 26.
