Kartarpur Sahib Pilgrimage

Authorities in Punjab's Gurdaspur today stopped pilgrims from travelling to the historic Gurdwara Darbar Sahib in Pakistan through the Kartarpur corridor due to the rising water level in the Ravi.

Delhi Revenue Minister Kailash Gahlot reviewed preparations for the pilgrimages under the scheme in a high-level meeting on Friday.

Congress Punjab President Navjot Singh Sidhu today will visit the Dera Baba Nanak shrine in Gurdaspur and offer prayers for the reopening of the Kartarpur Corridor so that devotees could visit the shrine dedicated to Sikh Guru Nanak Dev in Pakistan.

India has raised questions on a proposal from Pakistan to reopen cross-border movement to the famous Sikh pilgrimage site at Kartarpur, people with direct knowledge of the matter told NDTV.

Pilgrimage and registration for the Kartarpur Sahib Gurudwara in Pakistan will be suspended beginning Sunday midnight in view of the Coronavirus outbreak, the Home Ministry said.

With the first batch of Sikh pilgrims set to leave for Darbar Sahib in Pakistan on November 8, authorities will launch online registration for those interested in making the sacred journey along the newly laid Kartarpur corridor on Sunday.

India on Sunday handed over a dossier to Pakistan about individuals and organisations based in the neighbouring country which might try to disrupt pilgrimage to the Kartarpur Sahib Gurdwara, following which Islamabad assured that no anti-India activity would be allowed.

Cricketer-turned-Punjab Minister Navjot Singh Sidhu may no longer be a member of the BJP, but that has not prevented him from thanking the central government over its move to develop a corridor for Sikh devotees to visit the hallowed Gurdwara Kartarpur Sahib in neighbouring Pakistan.
