A video has gone viral of two brothers, one from India and one from Pakistan, reuniting at the Kartarpur corridor. 'India and Pakistan dissolved in those few hours,' an onlooker said.
Every Pakistan PM has to extend a hand of friendship with India and substantiate it with adequate photo-ops. Kartarpur corridor was one such opportunity for Imran Khan.
Even if Pakistan military is making peace overture, what is its motive? Some say the country is overstretched on Afghanistan front and badly needs some let up.
The decision to reopen the Corridor, which was shut down by India due to the pandemic in March 2020, was taken after a delegation of Punjab BJP leaders met Home Minister Amit Shah.
Congress & SAD leaders have asked PM Modi to simplify the 'complex process', under which passports and police verification are compulsory to visit Kartarpur Sahib.
Nick Jonas is not trying to modernise the mangalsutra, but his gesture shows that choices can be equal. If commitment must be flaunted, it need not be gendered.
