Following the Union government’s decision to reopen the Kartarpur Sahib corridor from November 17, several leaders in Punjab, both within the BJP and from the opposition, welcomed the decision. Chief minister Charanjit Singh Channi said that the entire state cabinet would pay its obeisance at the Kartarpur Corridor on November 18 as part of the first delegation, a day after it will be resumed.
“I warmly welcome the decision to reopen the Sri Kartapur Sahib Corridor on the auspicious occasion of 552nd Parkash Purb of Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji. This laudatory step has fulfilled aspirations of millions of devotees who’ve been deprived of ‘Darshan Didare’ due to COVID pandemic,” Channi tweeted.
