Sunny Deol joined Prime minister Narendra Modi, Navjot Singh Sidhu and Manmohan Singh at the inaugural ceremony of the Kartarpur corridor in Pakistan.
Kartarpur Corridor was finally inaugurated on Saturday. Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated the historic corridor from the Indian side of the border while Pak PM Imran Khan did the same on Pakistan side of the border. IndiaTVnews.com brings to you 10 iconic photos from the Kartarpur Corridor inauguration ceremony.
During his address at the inauguration ceremony of the Kartarpur Corridor, Sidhu said no one can deny "my friend" Imran Khan's contribution in making the opening of the corridor possible
Kartarpur Corridor provides visa-free access to Indian Sikhs to the Kartarpur Sahib Gurdwara, originally known as Gurdwara Darbar Sahib, a highly revered Sikh shrine where Guru Nanak Dev spent 18 years of his life and is his final resting place.
Just days ahead of the opening of the Kartarpur Corridor, Indian intelligence agencies have apprised security forces about a spurt in terror camps near Gurdwara Darbar Sahib in Narowal district of Pakistan, sources said here on Monday.
The Kartarpur corridor will be inaugurated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi in Gurdaspur on November 9. Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan will declare the corridor open from the other end.
Qureshi told reporters in his home town Multan on Saturday that Singh has accepted his invitation and would attend the scheduled opening as a common man rather than as a special guest, Dawn newspaper reported.
"The opening of the Kartarpur Corridor is clearly a game plan of the ISI," CM Amarinder Singh said, adding a bigger conspiracy seems to have been hatched by Pakistan Army against India.
Qureshi's remarks drew sharp criticism from India with External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj saying his comments "exposed" him and that Pakistan has "no respect for Sikh sentiments".
Qureshi said that opening of the Kartarpur border was a “big achievement” of Imran Khan government.
“There were probably 5-10,000 pictures taken of and with me there (in Pakistan), I don't know who is Gopal Chawla,” news agency ANI quoted him as saying.
It added that Pakistan must fulfil its international obligations and take effective and credible action to stop providing shelter and all kind of support to cross-border terrorism from territories under its control.
The Kartarpur Corridor, which will facilitate the visa-free travel of Indian Sikh pilgrims to Gurdwara Darbar Sahib in Kartarpur, is expected to be completed within six months.
