Kartarpur Corridor is a gift to sikh community: Buzdar
LAHORE: Chief Minister Punjab Sardar Usman Buzdar has said that Kartarpur Corridor is the historic gift of Prime Minister Imran Khan to the Sikh community.
While talking to the elected representatives at Punjab House Islamabad, Usman Buzdar said that government is providing every possible facility to the Sikh visitors coming to Pakistan for attending the inaugural ceremony of Kartarpur Corridor project. The completion of this project has promoted positive sentiments about Pakistan in India and hearts of the Sikh community living across the globe are filled with the emotions of joys and happiness, added the chief minister.
Prime Minister Imran Khan has won the hearts of the Sikh community living in India and other parts of the world and this important step, aimed at promoting interreligious harmony and brotherhood has earned international prestige and honour for Pakistan. In fact, the whole world is unable to present such an example of protection and up-gradation of religious places of minorities, he added and further said that this step will help to promote peace, brotherhood and affection.
While talking about the prevailing political situation including the march, chief minister maintained that political differences are always settled through dialogue and no agitation tactics should be adopted which may result in creating difficulties for the citizens. Pakistan's international image has been affected due to the march. The political differences should not reach to such a point to damage the nation's integrity and honour and give an opportunity to the opponents to criticize Pakistan, he added. There is a need to promote mutual understanding and coordination for economic stabilization and the political leaders should show statesmanship keeping in view the prevailing geographical situation and the ensuing challenges.
It is sanguine that Prime Minister Imran Khan is working day and night to transform Pakistan as an important economic power in the world, concluded the chief minister.
