Punjab cabinet minister Navjot Singh Sidhu wrote to Union minister Sushma Swaraj on Friday and hailed the Centre's decision to develop the Kartarpur Sahib corridor.
The Centre Thursday said it will develop and build the corridor from Punjab's Gurdaspur district to the International Border to facilitate Indian pilgrims to visit Gurdwara Darbar Sahib in Kartarpur in Pakistan.
Hailing the Centre, Sidhu in the letter said, "As we move down this road, and write a new chapter of faith and love for the region, I pray and hope that this enterprise will yield undeniable and implicit change and thaw in the relations, that it will build bridges, burn animosity and will act like a soothing balm for two neighbouring countries."
