Hindu devotees return to India

Over 80 Indian Hindu pilgrims departed from Pakistan to India on Wednesday following their participation in the 316th birth anniversary celebrations of Shiv Avtari Stguru Sant Shadaram Sahib at Shadani Darbar Hayat Pitafi in Sindh province.

The Evacuee Trust Property Board (ETPB) officers, Saifullah Khokhar and Umar Javed Awan, bid farewell to the pilgrims at the Wagah Border.

During an address to reporters at the Wagah Border, Indian delegation leader Yudhishter Lal conveyed his appreciation, stating: “The affection and hospitality we experienced in Pakistan will forever be treasured.”

He commended the provisions for security, lodging, and healthcare services.

Lal implored the governments of both nations to relax visa requirements, facilitating easier access for individuals to visit their sacred sites.
