Islamabad, February 8
Pakistan is considering a proposal for allowing Indian pilgrims to enter the Kartarpur corridor without passport in a bid to attract more visitors to Gurdwara Darbar Sahib, Interior Minister Ijaz Shah informed country’s parliament today.
The minister told the National Assembly during the question hour that passport-free entry of pilgrims was currently not allowed in accordance with the pact signed between Pakistan and India. However, a proposal for giving the entry without passport in order to attract more visitors was under consideration, for which detailed input might be sought from the Foreign Affairs Ministry. — PTI
