The high-level delegations from India and Pakistan will meet at the Attari-Wagah border today to discuss issues related to the Kartarpur Corridor. The main issues include connectivity at the Zero Point and the number of pilgrims to be allowed especially on special occasions. Sources say, India will raise its concerns over the security aspect also. New Delhi, had earlier conveyed, its strong concerns to Pakistan over the presence of a leading Khalistani separatist in a committee appointed by Islamabad on the project.

The project will allow easy access to Sikh pilgrims from India to Gurdwara Darbar Sahib in Kartarpur in Pakistan, the final resting place of Guru Nanak. A hi-tech and robust security system will be in place when the corridor becomes operational as security is paramount and non-negotiable.

The work on a four-lane highway on the Indian side is in full swing. India is constructing a bridge at the Zero Point and has urged Pakistan to build a similar bridge on its side that will provide safe and secure movement of the pilgrims and address concerns regarding flooding. The construction work at the site of passenger terminal complex at Dera Baba Nanak in India is on. The work has been planned to be completed by 31st October before the commemoration of 550th birth anniversary of Guru Nanak in November.
