City police kicked off an 'Aman Caravan' from the Town Hall on Monday in collaboration with the district administration and members of Central Executive Peace Committee to promote interfaith harmony, peace and tolerance among different schools of thought as well as to ensure a peaceful Muharram.

The caravan led by Capital City Police Officer Ghulam Mahmood Dogar and Lahore Commissioner Capt (retd) Muhammad Usman included participants from different schools of thought and members of the peace committee.

The caravan left the Town Hall and passed through several areas of the city, including Mall Road, Civil Secretariat, Old Anarkali, Block Sayyedan Islampura, Cantt, Shadman and Wahdat Road.
