Prime Minister Narendra Modi while speaking on the occasion said governments and armies would always do their bit but people to people contact had its own strength. “Whoever thought that the Berlin Wall would ever fall”, he asked adding with the blessings of Sri Guru Nanak Dev ji the Kartarpur corridor would become a big reason to join the people of both countries.
