DERA BABA NANAK (PB): Vice President M Venkaiah Naidu on Monday hailed the foundation stone laying of the Kartarpur corridor as the “beginning of a new chapter” in India-Pakistan ties and said it will act as a unifier to build “bridges across old chasms”.
This corridor will be a bridge between the two peoples who have so much in common, Naidu said in his address at the foundation stone-laying ceremony here.
“This is a corridor that opens new doors. It is a path that opens up new possibilities. It is a unifier, building bridges across old chasms. It promotes deeper understanding and a new resolve to connect the people of our two countries through love, empathy and invisible threads of common spiritual heritage,” Naidu said.
Underlining that it was the Indian Government which urged the Government of Pakistan to develop the corridor, he said Indians are happy that Pakistan has accepted their long-pending demand. (AGENCIES)
