Ulema urged to promote harmony

RAWALPINDI:

Religious scholars should play their role for the peaceful observance of the Chehlum of Hazrat Imam Hussain (AS) being observed on Thursday, said Rawalpindi Commissioner Muhammad Mahmood. All religious scholars must work to create harmony, brotherhood and patience. He expressed these views in a special meeting with the Peace Committee members. The meeting was attended by Additional Deputy Commissioner Maleha Jamal, Additional Deputy Commissioner Zaheer Anwar Japa, and members of the Peace Committee. The commissioner made it clear that routes and times should be observed for Chehlum gatherings and processions. The use of loudspeakers should be banned and hate speech would not be allowed under any circumstances so that no untoward incidents take place.
