Dear Sir, The whole story about Haj subsidy is blown out of proportion, by a few political parties. Are you aware that the price of subsidized tickets for Haj, in Indian Airlines, is only 10% less than the actual price? In addition, the airlines do very good business during that time, by increasing the no. of flights and making people to take only IA flights because of this so-called subsidy. They make huge profit by the volumes, though the profit margin is less.
