NEW DELHI: Ahead of ‘Gurpurab’ on November 19, the Centre will reopen the Kartarpur Sahib Corridor on Wednesday for Sikh devotes to the holy shrine in Pakistan that was closed since March last year in view of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Corridor provides rare visa-free travel from India to Pakistan and vice versa for pilgrims to pray at Holy Gurudwara Darbar. The Centre had earlier decided to reopen the Corridor ahead of Gurpurab, the birth anniversary of the first Sikh Guru and founder of Sikhism - Guru Nanak.
The Gurudwara, notably, is considered to be one of the holiest places in Sikhism and is believed to be the final resting place of Guru Nanak.
