• India: Why only Haj? End subsidies for all pilgrims
  26 January 2018, by siawi3

  I welcome the abolition of the government subsidy for Haj pilgrims. The Constitution says the Indian state is secular, and forbids discrimination on religious grounds. So, the state should keep its distance from all religious groups, and not subsidise any. However, a secular state that bans Haj subsidies should surely ban subsidies for any pilgrims of any religion.
  Instead the Modi government itself last year launched the Punyadham Yatra scheme, subsidising transport and accommodation for pilgrims to Puri, Vrindavan, Ajmer Sharif, Mathura and Vaishno Devi.

  Representative Katherine M.
