Speaking to media persons after his arrival at Kartarpur, Sidhu had said Pakistan and India should promote bilateral trade as it would alleviate poverty and bring prosperity to both countries.

The birth anniversary celebrations of Baba Guru Nanak concluded last week. Apart from Sidhu, a high-level delegation led by Indian Punjab Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Chann visited Gurdwara Darbar Sahib to pay respects.

The Kartarpur Corridor, a visa-free crossing, allows Indian Sikhs to visit the temple in Pakistan where Guru Nanak died in 1539AD. It was first opened in 2019 on Baba Nanak’s 550th birth anniversary.

Pakistan upgraded the facilities to allow the complex to accommodate more pilgrims. The white-domed shrine in small town of Kartarpur, is just four kilometres (2.5 miles) inside Pakistan.
