Islamabad: On Sunday, Pakistan categorically dismissed the “malicious Indian propaganda regarding the alleged use of the Kartarpur Corridor for business meetings”. In a statement, Foreign Office spokesperson Asim Iftikhar Ahmad said: “it is obvious that this concoction is part of India’s deliberate smear campaign seeking to undermine Pakistan’s historic initiative of opening the Kartarpur Sahib Corridor for Sikh pilgrims from India and around the world”. “Pakistan accords the highest primacy to the rights of the minorities. Sanctity of religious places and revered sites of every community is ensured in Pakistan,” Iftekhar added.
