The deadline for Hajj registration under government and private management has been extended to December 31 as the quota is yet to be filled.
The Religious Affairs Ministry said this in a notice on Sunday.
However, the registration began on November 15 and was supposed to end today (December 10).
In the next year, Hajj, one of the five pillars of Islam, will be held on June 16 (Zilhajj 9) subject to the appearing Moon in the sky.
As many as 1,27,198 devotees from Bangladesh - around 10,000 under government management and 1,17,000 under private management - can perform Hajj as per the agreement with Saudi Arabia.
