Talk:Kartarpur Corridor

1621:, the whole district was included in 'Pakistan' (or at least that is what people believed at the time). However, it is said that the Independence Act wasn't setting out a 'partition line', which had to be decided by a separate Punjab Boundary Commission in due course. Rather it was a line demarcating the districts with Muslim/non-Muslim majority. This division was meant for the Punjab Legislative Assembly, which would sit in two separate sessions to decide whether Punjab was to be partitioned or not. The Muslim majority districts (green) were to sit in one session and the non-Muslim majority districts (pink) in another. 1637:
Ravi river that fed Amritsar went through the Gurdaspur and Batala tehsils. Radcliffe even floated the idea with his Commissioners whether the canals could be put under joint control of India and Pakistan. They agreed that it would be a good idea, but they said it wasn't in their mandate to decide that. So, it seems that all the four Commissioners knew that the fate of Gurdaspur and Batala tehsils was being decided, but I can't say whether they figured out that Shakargarh would go to Pakistan.
1629:). Radcliffe knew ahead of time that the major disputes were along the Ravi river, with Lahore being Musim-majority and Amritsar non-Muslim majority. (As you can expect, the Muslim judges put Amritsar in Pakistan and the Hindu/Sikh judges put Lahore in India.) Assuming that Lahore and Amritsar would go two ways, the next question was the Gurdaspur district. He decided that the Shakargarh tehsil would go to Pakistan (reasonably), that the Pathankot to India (also reasonably), but that 43: 652:
and the Pakistani media will say something else (Do any Pakistani sources say Vajpayee started it?). But we ourselves can't start editing like either Indians or Pakistanis here, sadly :D. The Wire is a good source, and no matter how anti-govt, but it is still Indian. The Wire will never write Indian troops opened fire first on the LOC, whereas the Pakistani media will never write Pakistani troops fired first (right?).
249: 228: 1441:. He could have raised it with Radcliffe. I can also tell you that the Sikhs and Muslims of Gurdaspur district most brutally murdered each other during the Partition. There are no Sikhs left in the Shakargarh tehsil (even though there are Hindus) and no Muslims left on the Indian side of the Gurdaspur district. There is plenty of revisionist history now being written in the Sikh propaganda literature. -- 259: 59: 21: 1579: 142: 121: 90: 152: 1067:
Mountbatten sent a query to the Secretary of State for India, Lord Listowell, asking what 'other factors' might mean. Listowell, who had succeeded Pethick-Lawrence as Secretary of State for India, replied that these were entirely for the Punjab Boundary Commissioners to decide. However, he said, 'other factors must include the location of Sikh shrines'.

Amritsar off too. If that was not to happen, Gurdaspur was the obvious choice, for it contained two other important shrines, Dera Baba Nanak and Sri Gobindpur. This, more than anything else, probably persuaded the Boundary Commission to decide from the outset that these tehsil must come to east Punjab.
1464:
When Sir Cyril Radcliffe drew the boundary-line he happened to allot the whole of district Gurdaspur to Pakistan (see June 3, 1947 announcement). How could the universal point go to Pakistan alone? The miracles then began to happen. J.L.Nehru first Prime Minister of India exercised his influence over

Atal Bihari Vajpayee, in 1999, had been the “first” to propose a visa-free corridor for pilgrims to travel from Dera Baba Nanak in India to Darbar Sahib in Pakistan during his visit to Lahore. The Pakistani government did not respond to this proposal, according to the MEA. The UPA government had also

After partition, Indian Sikhs would go over informally, crossing a bridge on the Ravi river which joined Dera Baba Nanak with Kartarpur Sahib. But the bridge was destroyed in the Indo-Pakistan war of 1965 and once again in 1971 during the Bangladesh Liberation War. Until a border fence was set up in

Yes, not really arbitrary. Slip of tongue, umm, fingers. I've just heard it so often that the facts need reminding. (By the way, this is a wonderful book, the source you have quoted, though I read it 2-3 years back I still remember how well it was written and it brought out so many new things for me

It seems fairly certain that the 1974 protocol on religious visits does not cover Kartarpur. The Indian MEA claims that it raised it several times. The Gurdwara was however "remained shut from 1947 to 2000", according to its caretaker. Why did it get opened in 2000? Perhaps Vajpayee's prompting. But

The foreign minister recalled Quaid-i-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah's August 11, 1947 speech, quoting him as saying: "You are free; you are free to go to your temples, you are free to go to your mosques or to any other place or worship in this State of Pakistan. You may belong to any religion or caste or

Yes, my conscience was pricking me when I wrote Sharif too. :D and I should have listened to it. This is a quick reply from my side for now. (This needs a more detailed consideration which will follow once I am able to find better sources). I was looking for what the Pakistani media says about this,
1699:
There are various claims about Pakistan "offering" to open a corridor since 2000. Yet there were no official announcements or diplomatic exchanges regarding it. The only diplomatic exchanges that are confirmed are those during Vajpayee-Sharif bus diplomacy and the 2008 initiative provoked by Kuldip
1360:
Gobind Singh, the caretaker of the gurdwara at Kartarpur, said the gurdwara had "remained shut from 1947 to 2000". According to Akali leader Kuldeep Singh Wadala, the gurdwara had been abandoned till 2003. It served as a cattle shed for the villagers and its lands were taken over by share-croppers.

Radcliffe was giving Nankana Sahib in Sheikhupura district, the birthplace of Guru Nanak, and the second holiest shrine of the Sikhs, to Pakistan, as well as Lahore which contained Gurdwara Shahidganj, and four other important shrines related to Gurus Arjun Dev and Ram Das. He could hardly have cut

The timeline checks out. On 20 or 21 June, 2008, McDonald give a press conference at the border near Dera Baba Nanak. On 27 June, Pranab Mukherjee (not SM Krishna, apparently) meets the Pakistani foreign minister. The day after (28 June), he stands at the same spot on the border, and announces that

651:
come to a consensus, something like the following should be added, the Indian Media says "this" and the Pakistan media says "this", about who started first, also adding that in principle even Jinnah said "this". I think all of us here know very well that Indian media will try to say we initiated it
572:
I think your phrase and the 2 sources you added and the one above don't agree. Basically all three source said that Vajpayee raised it none of them said Sharif raised it and in fact, looking at the future developments, Sharif appears to have shot down this proposal. So it is not accurate as per the

Theories abound as to why Radcliffe did that. Prem Shankar Jha believes that it was because of Sikh shrines. But it is hard to tell if Radcliffe even knew about the Sikh shrines that were in the frame. The other theory, which has significant documentation to support it, is that the canals from the

The terms of reference of the Boundary Commission had stated that it would 'demarcate the boundaries of the two parts of the Punjab on the basis of ascertaining the contiguous majority areas of Muslims and non-Muslims. In doing so it will also take into account other factors.' When he saw this,

Here is a quick summary of the partition of the 1947 Gurdaspur district. The population of the district was roughly 50-50 Muslim and non-Muslim. In the 1931 census, apparently the non-Muslims were in a majority. In the 1941 census, the Muslims had a marginal majority. The precise figures are
786:“Pakistan has several times offered to India that it will construct a road to Kartarpur,” says Singh. “The proposals were even approved and during the Musharraf era a tender was floated with 50 per cent of road construction being carried out. But India never responded.” 832:

The Punjab Boundary Commission was made of four judges: 2 Muslim, 1 Sikh and 1 Hindu. Each of them came up with a different partition line. There was no consensus whatsoever. So, the task fell on Radcliffe to make the final decision (hence the name
