Thus most of Sikh had hidden strong wish inside the heart to go inside the sanctuary of one of their religious saints.

Baba Guru Nanak was the organizer of Sikhism, and he spent 18 years of his life in Pakistan near the bank of river Ravi.

His residential place became famous as Kartarpur Sahib Gurdwara, and after his death in 1539, the Sikh community started giving great respect to this place.

After the independence of Pakistan, this area came to Pakistan’s side. It is only three kilometres away from the border of India. Sikh’s emotions are immensely attached to this place due to the presence of Shrine of their religious leader Baba Guru Nanak.

Several Sikhs came at the border and tried to see the tomb of their beloved Baba Guru Nanak with the help of Binoculars or telescope.
