Web Desk September 01, 2012

On a day when Muttahida Qaumi Movement’s leader Altaf Hussain warned of how sectarian strife could break Pakistan, and seven men were killed in Quetta for their faith, many people condemned extremism and called for peace.

Many yet took the time to voice their opinions on the social networking site Twitter, protesting against the growing extremism in the society.

Soon, the trend #interfaithharmony was one of the topmost trending topics in Pakistan.

Here are some of the tweets from that national discourse.
