Pak offers way to Gurdwara Kartarpur
Lahore. April 24 - 2003
The Pakistani Government is ready to provide unrestricted passage to Indian
Sikh devotees who want to visit Gurdwara Kartarpur in that country without a
passport or a visa. President Pervez Musharraf has offered to provide Indian
Sikhs with a corridor which would be fenced on both sides. No passport or
visa would be required, but pilgrims would have to return within a few hours
the same day, Pakistan Sikh Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee co-chairman Sham
Singh and senior officials of the Pakistan Evacuate Trust said. Gurdwara
Kartarpur in Pakistan is at a distance of 3 km from Gurdwara Dera Baba Nanak
in Gurdaspur, with the Ravi separating them. A bridge which joined the two
gurdwaras was bombarded during the 1965 Indo-Pak war. PTI
