India’s cricketer-turned-politician Navjot Singh Sidhu is scheduled to visit Gurdwara Darbar Sahib via the Kartarpur Corridor on Wednesday (today).

“Will visit Gurudwara Kartarpur Saheb tomorrow 24th Wednesday… Grateful to the Great Guru for making me an instrument of his Goodwill- will continue to propagate his message of peace ,Universal brotherhood and sarbat ka bhala … group should assemble at 11 am at the Kartarpur Corridor check post !!!  will address the media at 3 pm on the Indian side … .. On my way to Amritsar” Sidhu posted this on his social media X account

The corridor facilitates visa-free border crossing for Indian Sikhs and enables them to visit the Gurdwara Darbar Sahib near Lahore. It links the shrine in Pakistan to Gurdwara Dera Baba Nanak, Gurdaspur district in Indian Punjab.

Sidhu played an important role in the establishment of the Kartarpur Corridor along with then prime minister Imran Khan and Pakistan’s army chief in 2019 which made him hugely popular in both Pakistan and India.
