Pakistan has extended the Kartarpur Corridor agreement for another five years, allowing Indian pilgrims to visit Gurudwara Darbar Sahib without needing a visa. This move shows Pakistan’s commitment to promoting interfaith harmony and protecting the rights of religious minorities.
Since the Corridor opened, it has allowed thousands of Sikh devotees to visit this important religious site. The agreement renewal demonstrates Pakistan’s ongoing support for the Sikh community and highlights its dedication to fostering peace and understanding among different faiths.
The Kartarpur Corridor has gained international recognition as a “Corridor of Hope,” a term used by UN Secretary-General António Guterres. This acknowledgment reflects the Corridor’s role in encouraging goodwill and friendship between communities in Pakistan and India.
By making it easier for Sikh pilgrims to visit their holy site, Pakistan is sending a message of unity and respect for different religions. The Corridor not only provides spiritual access but also strengthens ties between the two countries, showcasing the potential for cooperation and mutual understanding.
As the agreement continues for another five years, it is expected that even more devotees will benefit from this arrangement, further promoting interfaith dialogue and harmony. The Kartarpur Corridor stands as a symbol of hope, proving that despite differences, people can come together to celebrate their faith and share in the values of peace and compassion.
