Pakistan gives green signal for opening of Sharda Peeth Corridor: Reports
Sharda Peeth Is An Abandoned Temple In Sharda Village Along The Neelam River Across LoC.
The Pakistan government gave its approval for the opening of Sharda Peeth Corridor in Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK). Sharda Peeth is an abandoned temple in Sharda village along the Neelam river across LoC. It was a major centre of learning and is regarded as one of the 18 highly-revered temples in South Asia.
India and Pakistan recently laid the foundation stones of the Kartapur corridor on their respective sides. The construction of the corridor is expected to be complete in five months, facilitating the visit of Indian Sikh pilgrims to the 16th-century gurdwara in Kartarpur in Pakistan.
Recently, more than 200 Kashmiri Pandits took out a protest march in Anantnag demanding that a passage on the lines of the Kartarpur Corridor for Sikhs be opened to facilitate devotees to visit the Sharda Devi temple.
