As Pakistan opens #katarpurcorridor I am filled with pride & happy to welcome all Sikh brothers & sisters and at the same time I feel extremely sad because of #AYODHYAVERDICT and pray for all in India.This is not the Incredible India, secular India. It’s a shameful day for India.

The opening of the #KartarpurCorridorForPeace in time for Guru Nanak’s 550th Gurpurab is a real milestone. It’s a sign of true religious harmony & how open hearted Pakistanis are. All too often men build walls & not enough bridges .. 🇵🇰 #Kartarpur #Kartarpur2Khalistan2020

A friend Zarmina, visited the #KartarpurCorridor and can’t stop raving its beauty & the fact that it was all completed in 8 months. Religious harmony & the facilitation to allow all faiths to practice their beliefs is key to peace. A warm welcome to the #SikhCommunity #Kartarpur pic.twitter.com/YTf410HupN

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated their side of Kartarpur corridor in the morning, as the first group of pilgrims from India left for Pakistan, where PM Imran Khan will welcome them upon the inauguration of the corridor. Other political leaders and celebrities will also attend the ceremony, which marks the culmination of multiple rounds of negotiations.
