JAKARTA - The Special Committee (Pansus) for the Angket implementation of the 2024 Hajj DPR RI asked witnesses from the Indonesian Ministry of Religion (Kemenag) to attend the meeting which will be held on Monday, August 26, the day after tomorrow.

The reason is that a meeting related to the Hajj Questionnaire Special Committee which was held on Friday, August 23, yesterday had to be postponed because no party from the Ministry of Religion was present.

"It has been scheduled (for the meeting, ed) but 2 witnesses from the Ministry of Religion asked to postpone it again. The chairman of the special committee also has (a meeting)," said Member of the Special Committee for Hajj Hajj in the DPR RI, Luluk Nur Hamidah, Saturday, August 24. Therefore, Luluk asked the parties, including witnesses, to be able to respect the process that has been scheduled by the DPR. He saw that the Ministry of Religion was not serious about responding to the Special Committee for Hajj in the form of this DPR.

"The witness asked (to be delayed, ed) because it was still internal consolidation. I saw they were playing with the Special Committee," said Luluk. The Central Java electoral district PKB legislator revealed the reason the witnesses were not present at the meeting. He said the witnesses at the Ministry of Religion were busy and still consolidated.

"The mode is busy, internal consolidation, but the point is to avoid the call of the special committee as much as possible," said Luluk.

Luluk said that his party had rescheduled to hold a meeting with the Ministry of Religion on Monday the day after tomorrow at 09.30 WIB. The witnesses who had to come were from the Ministry of Religion, including regulators and travel parties.

If the witness is not present, said Luluk, the Special Committee will summon him forcibly.

"Monday. The main witness must come, and we have the right to force summons," said the member of Commission IV of the DPR.
