Religions can be tools of introspection which allows one to transform himself for the better. All religions preach on inculcating values of universal brotherhood, he added.
Everyone should imbibe mercy, forgiveness and other values in life and should rise above the level of misunderstandings, develop religious tolerance and respect for other religions. Everyone should be loyal to motherland and nation irrespective of their religions, he added.
