In view of the improvement in the Covid-19 situation in India, Punjab Chief Minister Amarinder Singh on Wednesday urged Prime Minister Narendra Modi to reopen the Kartarpur Corridor to facilitate people's visit to the historic shrine in Pakistan.
In a letter to the Prime Minister, Amarinder Singh said his government would be happy to work in conjunction with the Centre to ensure adherence to proper Covid-19 protocols, including testing and vaccination of pilgrims using the corridor.
He hoped for a positive consideration by the Prime Minister in this regard.
The movement of devotees to Kartarpur through the corridor was suspended in March 2020 due to the pandemic outbreak.
