The guest speakers were:

The programme was chaired by Imran Imam.

Speakers were asked to address the following questions:

2. Can we be moral without having a faith?
3. What role, if any, does religion or faith in a secular society?
4 How can the believers of various faiths work together with people of no faith for the betterment of human society?

The transcript of the discussion coupled with the audio will be available from our 'Media Library' soon.
