solve the issue.

cent of the world's GDP, 1.3 per cent of the world trade and only 1.5 per
cent of the investments. Twenty five per cent of OIC population does not
have access to medical facilities or safe drinking water.

poor. No Muslim country is in the top list of the Human Development
Index or in any other global economic indicators

resources and 40 per cent of available raw material but their GDP is
only 5 per cent of the world GDP. Muslim countries miserably lag
behind in education and technology.

institutions or centers of excellence find place in the top 100 in the
world.

the progress on the issue of Palestine and showed their
determination to stand with the people of Palestine until they get
their independence from the cruelity of Israel.

Israel to put an end to its settlement activities and to dismantle
the settlements inside the Palestinian territories.

28. OIC role On Palestine issue
Conclusion
The Organization of Muslim Cooperation (OIC) has so far
miserably failed to liberate the long-persecuted Palestinians
from the yoke of imperial Israel. The organisation of the
divided Muslim countries has only issued rhetorical
statements in favour of Palestine, without any practical
action.

29. OIC role on Kashmir issue

Kashmir conflict against the Republic of India.
 In 1969 King Hassan of Morocco invited the Government of India for
the 1969 Summit in Rabat.
 During the OIC 1994 Conference in Tehran, Pakistan succeeded in
persuading the member countries to create the "OIC Contact Group on
Kashmir".
 Latest News

OIC has been urging India to provide access to Kashmir but
unfortunately India has declined to accede to the request.
 Despite after denial by India, the OIC general sectrary said, "we should
keep pressure on New Delhi on the issue of human rights violations in
Kashmir and peaceful resolution of the dispute.“
 He said terrorism is terrorism and we must work together to combat
islamophobia and the rising incident of hatred against Muslims.

Bangladesh

bloodshed in Syria, alleviate the suffering and plight of
Syrians, and make way for aid organizations to provide
urgent humanitarian assistance to the affected persons
across Syria, the Secretary General of the Organization of
Islamic Cooperation, Iyad Ameen Madani, called for a truce
and ceasefire in all Syrian territory.
 OIC played a minimum role by giving Support of ethical
and materialism to Afghanistan during soviet agression
(USA attack).
 In 1974 the conflict between newly formed Bangladesh and
Pakistan was sucessfully solved by Organization.

31. Conclusion
 All the summits conference clearly shows the prime
objectives of the OIC is to promote harmony and great
cooperation among Muslims. And to protect their interest
in international system. But the fact is that the current
situation of this Organization is worse than former. One of
the most visible failure of oic is the non response on the
issue os palestine, Syria and the Israel- Libnan conflict.
However it is proved effective in most of the issue on the
other hand it also quite in the some major issues.
