Fazl wants moon sighting committee restructured

Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F) chief Fazlur Rehman has expressed concerns over the performance of the Ruet-e-Hilal Committee, and suggested amendment in its scope of workability. Talking to reporters after leading Eidul Fitr prayers in his native village Abdul Khel here on Sunday, Fazl said that the performance of the Reut-e-Hilal committee was “not up to the mark and it needed restructuring” to reduce confrontation on various issues, particularly on moon sighting among various sects of the four provinces. The JUI-F chief urged the parliamentarians to transact legislation over the issue to resolve the issue permanently. He said that there were differences within the Reut-e-Hilal committee, and questioned how a divided body could take the right decision.
