Pak further eases norms for pilgrimage to Kartarpur

New Delhi, November 21

Pakistan has decided to extend relaxation in norms for pilgrims visiting Gurdwara Darbar Sahib via Kartarpur corridor. The exemption in providing 10 days advance information about the visit to the shrine will remain in force till November 30.

After India’s sudden announcement of the opening of the corridor, Pakistan had decided to waive this requirement as it would have meant a waiting period of 10 days before the visit of the first batch of pilgrims. Pakistan said the decision had been taken keeping in mind the religious sentiments of pilgrims. It indicated the norm would be applicable from December 1. —TNS
