Evolving consensus among federating units for celebrating Eid and start of Ramazan-ul-Mubarak across the country on the same day would be a great service for nation, Pakistan Ulema Council (PUC) Chairman Maulana Tahir Ashrafi Thursday said. Speaking in the meeting of Scientific Committee on Ruet-e-Hilal and Ministry of Science and Technology, he said the consensus efforts of the Ministry of Science and Technology must bear fruit before the start of Shaban-ul-Moazzam.
He said Ruet-e-Hilal committee members should have turned up in such meetings. Ruet-e-Hilal Committee Chairman Mufti Muneeb-ur-Rehman and Shahabuddin Populzai of Qasim Khan Mosque, Peshawar should be summoned repeatedly along with the scholars of other school of thoughts, he added.—APP
