Prime Minister's Special Representative on Religious Harmony Maulana Muhammad Tahir Ashrafi has urged people to respect all religious schools of thought.

Addressing a seminar on Peace Building in Multan on Sunday, he said the nation would have to make united efforts for maintaining the atmosphere of peace and tolerance in the country.

He said that it is imperative to promote religious harmony for providing future generations a safe and prosperous country.

He said that unfortunate incident of lynching of a Sri Lankan National in Sialkot was a terrible act as Holy Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) has declared it unlawful for a Muslim to inflict pain or injury to others.
