Chisti said all religious heads and priests, barring Zainul Abedin, were at the dargah when the Pakistani leader came with his delegation Saturday.
The priests offered headgear to Ashraf before entering the dargah.
Ashraf offered a velvet ‘chadar' and floral tributes at the mausoleum. He remained at the dargah for about 20 minutes along with his wife Nusrat and some 20 members of his team.
Ashraf is said to have prayed for global peace and prosperity, especially for Pakistan.
