Islamabad: JUI-F chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman while criticizing establishment of board of peace by US president Donald Trump and Pakistan decision to join it has said government is accepting this invitation happily but the house has not been taken into confidence.

He questioned government should tell what is compulsion behind this decision.

Was this matter tabled before cabinet, he said. This decision was not got approved by the cabinet which is violation of parliamentary traditions.

He held Israel came to power one year after independence of Pakistan. An illegitimate state was established on the land of Palestine.

He said over 70000 Palestinians have been martyred by Israel so far. More than one lac Palestinians lost their lives due to hunger and diseases.

But the question is this did we show the sympathy to Palestinians to which they deserved.

It is sorrowful matter Israeli prime minister too is being included in Board of peace. Bombing is still continuing in Gaza. Where have gone those international institutions on which responsibilities rested with reference to Palestine.
