Uncertainty over hajj

According to a frontpage report in The Daily Star of August 2, around 40,000 pilgrims are facing uncertainty over performing hajj this year due to frequent cancellation of Biman flights. As Biman is unable to operate their regular scheduled flights on time, why should they get involved in carrying prospective hajjis? There is a  ministry of religious affairs, who, along with the hajj agencies, should handle this entire affair.

As Biman tries to make a substantial profit in arranging hajj flights, the pilgrims are suffering and the cost is rising every year. If the ministry and hajj agencies solely take care of this problem, the cost can be reduced to a great extent.
