Prime Minister Imran Khan has vowed action against igniting flames of sectarianism on Ashura.

In a tweet on Monday, the prime minister while expressing gratefulness over peacefully observing Ashura wrote that those who ignite flames of sectarianism on Ahura will be held accountable.

“I want to thank our nation for the peaceful observing of Ashura in the country. However, unfortunately, information has come to me of elements who tried to ignite flames of sectarianism on this occasion and I will be taking very tough action against them,” the prime minister in a tweet wrote.

Ashura had been observed all over the country on Sunday to pay homage to the martyrs of Karbala as security forces made arrangments to protect mourners from terrorist incidents. On the occasion, processions were carried out in all cities of Pakistan as cell phone services remained suspended and a nation-wide holiday was also observed.
