Amritsar, April 12
A ‘jatha’ comprising 815 Sikh pilgrims today left for Pakistan on the occasion of Baisakhi through the Attari-Wagah joint checkpost. The main event is scheduled at Gurdwara Panja Sahib in Hasan Abdal on April 14.
The Pakistan High Commission had issued 1,100 visas to the pilgrims for the occasion. If everything goes according to the plan, the pilgrims will have an opportunity to visit other Sikh shrines during the 10-day trip. — TNS
