India refuses to grant visa to 400 Pakistani pilgrims for Urs of Khawaja Moin Chishti

India has issued visas to 100 Pakistani pilgrims for the annual Urs of Hazrat Khawaja Moinuddin Chishti in Ajmer Sharif despite a quota of 500 attendees set by the Indian authorities, reported 24NewsHD TV channel. 

A spokesperson for the Religious Affairs Ministry confirmed that India refused to grant visas to 400 Pakistani pilgrims, which has caused disappointment among the devotees eager to participate in the religious event. 

The Urs, which is a significant religious gathering at the shrine of Hazrat Khawaja Moinuddin Chishti, will be held in Ajmer, India. The 100 approved pilgrims will depart for Ajmer Sharif via Wagah on January 5.
