KARTARPUR CORRIDOR

INFORMATION

Ever wondered what could be the reason of peace and harmony between two counties like India and Pakistan? Well, the Kartarpur Corridor is one that intends to do so. The Kartarpur Corridor is known as the corridor of 'international peace and harmony' and is a 4.2-km-long passage connecting the town of Dera Baba Nanak in India with the Kartarpur Sahib Gurudwara in Pakistan's Narowal district. The Kartarpur Corridor is a visa-free border crossing and corridor, connecting the Gurdwara Darbar Sahib in Pakistan to the border with India. The crossing allows Sikh devotees from India to visit the gurdwara in Kartarpur, Pakistan without a visa.

The shrine is significant for Sikhs because, the first guru of Sikhism, Guru Nanak Dev is believed to have spent his last days in the gurudwara from 1521 to 1539. Guru Nanak spent the last 18 years of his life so this shrine was built to commemorate the site. It is considered to be the second holiest site for Sikhism after Gurdwara Janam Asthan, which is also in Pakistan, and was built on the site where Guru Nanak was born.

However, the facilities have recently been upgrading and with time it will allow the complex to accommodate more pilgrims. To protect the shrine from floods, the expansion includes a new courtyard, museum, library, dormitories, locker rooms, an immigration centre and an embankment. The corridor also features a bridge over the Ravi river, which flows between the international border and the shrine which will allow visitors to cross the river pretty easily.
