Prime Minister Imran Khan announced on Sunday that Kartarpur is ready to welcome the Sikh pilgrims from India on Guru Nanak jee’s 550th birthday celebrations.
The prime minister tweeted the message along with pictures of the set up at the Pakistani side for the incoming Sikh pilgrims at Kartarpur.
PM Imran also congratulated his government for readying Kartarpur in a “record time” for Guru Nanak’s birth anniversary.
Earlier, PM Imran had said Pakistan is all set to open its doors for Sikhs from across the globe. Pakistan has also invited former prime minister of India Manmohan Singh to attend the opening ceremony of Kartarpur Corridor.
In November last year, Prime Minister Imran Khan laid the foundation stone for the corridor, months after he assumed office after winning majority of seats in the parliament.
