Bank Al-Falah’s Positive U-Turn: Now The BAFL Allows Donations For Palestine
Meanwhile, Bank Al-Falah Limited (BAFL) took a positive U-turn and allowed Pakistanis to deposit donations for Palestine.
The bank took the decision after facing a lot of condemnation and criticism for its earlier decision “NOT TO ACCEPT” donations for Palestine.
A few bankers working with BAFL told The Truth International (TTI) that their bank earlier directed them not to receive donations for Palestine throughout its branches in Pakistan.
However, when the issue became viral on social media and several people not only condemned the bank but some of the account holders asked BAFL to close their accounts.
Therefore, seeing a massive reaction the management of the Bank Al-Falah Limited took a positive U-turn and allowed its branches to receive donations for Palestine.
