The Senate Standing Committee on Religious Affairs and Interfaith Harmony on Monday unanimously passed a resolution condemning the Israeli atrocities against the innocent Palestinians including the children.
The committee met under the chairmanship of Senator Maulana Abdul Ghafoor Haideri here at the Parliament Lodges.
The committee strongly condemned the United States’ veto against the United Nations Security Council resolution passed by the majority of the world nations for a ceasefire in Gaza.
The resolution also called for an immediate humanitarian ceasefire. The committee strongly condemned the Israeli atrocities and aggressive actions against the innocent Palestinians, including elderly people, children, and patients in hospitals, urging the government to take immediate action for the same.
The committee directed the ministry to investigate the non-registered company, Fifth Pilar Takaful Ltd, involved in the illegal booking of Hajj and Umrah.
The Hajj Organizers Association of Pakistan (HOAP) chairman informed that the company was falsely claiming affiliation with HOAP, and deceiving the public by promoting installment-based Hajj, potentially contributing to a broader fraud scheme.
