Haj pilgrimage should be an occasion to introspect, says Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan

Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan has said that the Haj pilgrimage should be an occasion to look deep within oneself. He was speaking at the State-level inauguration of the Haj camp at the Kannur International Airport on Saturday.

“Every pilgrimage is a journey to introspect and to be self-aware,” he said. Mr. Vijayan said the Haj pilgrimage would contribute to the development of the Kannur airport.

The Kannur airport is a convenient location for Haj pilgrims from north Malabar. The number of pilgrims is expected to go up in the coming years. Accordingly, more facilities would be provided at the airport, said the Chief Minister.
