SAD MP Prem Singh Chandumajra today sought urgent and renewed diplomatic initiative by the Centre to secure a direct two-way access controlled corridor from Dera Baba Nanak in India to Kartarpur Sahib in Pakistan to enable Sikhs visit the holy place associated with the life of Guru Nanak Dev, their first guru.
Chandumajra, the Punjab's ruling party MP, welcomed the efforts of Punjab-based Society for Promotion of Peace (SPP) and National Press Club (NPC), Pakistan, in this regard.
He sought prompt resolution to this emotive issue to enable the millions of devotees from India and abroad to pay obeisance at Kartarpur Sahib.
Kartarpur Sahib Gurdwara was one of the most revered places of Sikhs and is situated just three kms from the International Border on the Pakistan side.
Chandumajra impressed upon the Union Ministry of External Affairs to take up the issue with the federal authorities in Pakistan.
