"Lately, some elements have become active to fulfil their vested interests by disrupting mutual social harmony between the followers of religions including Hindu and Muslim. In the name of various festivals, these elements have been staging various protests, giving expressions so as to increase conflict between castes and vandalising shops and house of various people. Such people should be identified immediately and brought to justice," he said.

He urged all to come together to protect and promote unity, social and cultural solidarity, tolerance and harmony among the diversity of various organisations affiliated with all religions and communities while embracing the dignity of a multi-ethnic, multi-lingual, multi-religious and multi-cultural state.
