India should use its influence to resolve Palestinians fate, said a prominent Indian Muslim organisation, Jamaat-e-Islamic Hind (JIH), Monday in New Delhi. JIH on behalf of a group of organisations and political parties has submitted a memorandum to the Minister of External Affairs Mr. S.M. Krishna requesting him to take positive action for recognition of Palestine as a sovereign state. The organisations emphasised that establishment of the sovereign state is the only solution to the problems of Palestine including West bank, Gaza strip and Jerusalem usurped by Israel in 1967, said a JIH’s statement mailed to IRNA today. The signatories expressed their anxiety that after hundreds of resolutions passed by UN forums, international and regional summits and bilateral agreements between Israel and Palestine Authorities, Israel is still occupying these areas. The signatories requested the Government of India to use its influence as an emerging economic and political power to gather support for the Palestine cause and make the impending effort successful.
