Punjab cabinet to pay obeisance at Kartarpur after corridor reopening: CM Channi

Punjab Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channi on Tuesday announced that the entire Punjab cabinet will pay obeisance at Kartarpur Sahib on November 18 as part of the first delegation of devotees after the reopening of the corridor.

Addressing a gathering during a function organised to mark the death anniversary of Congress stalwart Sardar Santokh Singh Randhawa at Dharowali in Gurdaspur district, the chief minister thanked Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah for re-opening the Kartarpur corridor ahead of the birth anniversary of Guru Nanak Dev.

Channi said that he had “personally taken up the issue of reopening of the corridor with the prime minister and the Union home minister”. He added, “This is a joyous occasion for the Punjabi community in general and Sikh brethren in particular.”
