Pak train passengers can travel by road at Wagah
Lahore:
After the temporary suspension of the Khokropar-Munabao train service,
India has allowed Pakistani passengers to travel to the country by road
via the Wagah-Atari border. The Indian High Commission announced this
in Lahore yesterday. The Indian mission said that the decision was taken
to facilitate travellers to India who were facing inconvenience as they
tried to have their visas modified following the temporary suspension
of the train service. It had, therefore, authorised travel to India via
the Wagah- Attari route, either by train or bus, for those holding visas
for the Khokropar-Munabao route, the Daily Times quoted sources at the
Indian High Commission as saying. The Indian High Commission also clarified
that the passengers need not visit the mission, and have their passports
stamped to have route changes endorsed. Current visas for any route would
be accepted, it added.
