The Chairman of the National Commission for Minorities, Iqbal Singh Lalpura, has expressed gratitude to Prime Minister Narendra Modi over the renewal of the Sri Kartarpur Sahib Corridor agreement.

India and Pakistan have renewed the agreement for another five years.

“Prime Minister Narendra Modi has given a significant gift to the Sikh community by renewing the agreement before the Parkash Purb of Guru Nanak Dev,” Lalpura said.

Under the agreement which was signed between the two countries on October 24, 2019, pilgrims from India have been facilitated to visit Gurdwara Darbar Sahib Kartarpur, Narowal, in Pakistan through the Kartarpur Sahib Corridor.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
