کرتارپور راہداری نے پچھتر سال سے بچھڑے دو بھائیوں کو ملا دیا جب ⁦@ImranKhanPTI⁩ نے کرتارپور کا افتتاح کیا تھا تو انھوں نے اس راہداری کو امن کی راہداری (Corridor of Peace) قرار دیا تھا اور آج یہ راہداری اس تلخیوں بھری سرحد پر امن، سلامتی ، محبت اور عقیدت کا نشان ہے pic.twitter.com/GTHZvNVEo3

He mentioned that Prime Minister Imran Khan had labelled the Kartarpur Corridor as ‘Corridor of Peace’ when he inaugurated it.

“Today, this corridor is a symbol of peace, security, love, and devotion on the acrimonious border,” Fawad wrote.

Kartarpur Corridor

Prime Minister Imran Khan inaugurated the Kartarpur Corridor on November 9, 2019, ahead of the 550th birth anniversary of Baba Guru Nanak, founder of Sikhism and first of ten Sikh Gurus, on November 12, 2019.

It is a visa-free border crossing, connecting the Gurdwara Darbar Sahib in Pakistan to the border with India. The crossing allows devotees from India to visit the worship site in Kartarpur, some 4.7 kilometres from the Pakistan-India border.

This place holds historical significance for billions of Sikhs across the world.
