SAPRI commissioned a group of eminent persons to draft a set of ‘Recommendations’ to promote religious harmony in Sri Lanka. SAPRI’s Forum for Inter-Faith Dialogue has been meeting intermittently for the past six months at our Institute to formulate these recommendations.
The group comprises clergymen, lawyers, university dons and leaders of civil society groups.
The former President chaired the meetings of the Forum and will preside at the meeting on January 28. Recently, she met the Mahanayake Theras of three Nikayas.(Kelum Bandara )
