TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Thursday advocated enhanced trade, cultural relations and people-to-people contact with the neighbouring countries and said there is bonding among the people as much of these areas were part of India before 1947.
Shah also expressed satisfaction over the opening of the Kartarpur corridor, connecting one of the holiest shrines of the Sikhs located in Pakistan with Dera Baba Nanak in Punjab, in 2019 while claiming there was an “error” and the place was left out of India during Partition.
Addressing an event organised on the occasion of the foundation day of the Land Port Authority (LPA) here, the home minister said India has a 15,000 km-long land boundary and “before 1947, we were together”.
“We have similar culture, we have similar languages, we have bonding. There are opportunities to enhance trade relations, cultural ties and people-to-people contact. The authority (LPA) can enhance trade with the neighbouring countries without compromising border security.
