Government States Security Concerns Keep Kartarpur Corridor Suspended
The Indian government announced that the Kartarpur Sahib Corridor will remain suspended due to ongoing security concerns following the 2025 Pahalgam terror attack. The visa-free corridor, connecting Dera Baba Nanak in Punjab with Gurdwara Darbar Sahib in Pakistan, was closed on May 7, 2025. Despite receiving requests from Sikh religious groups and community leaders for its reopening, the Ministry of External Affairs stated that security considerations currently prevent resumption. The corridor agreement, initially signed in 2019 and extended in 2024, remains in place but reopening depends on improved security conditions.
