New Delhi: Hours before India-Pakistan meeting at Wagah border on Kartarpur corridor Pakistan PM Imran Khan met Khalistani separatist Gopal Singh Chawla who is known for spewing venom against India and has also talked about dividing the country. The pro-Khalistani is the General Sectary of Pakistan Sikh Gurdwara Prabandhak Committee (PSGPC) and had also met Congress MP Navjot Singh Sidhu when the latter was on a visit to Pakistan to attend Kartarpur corridor groundbreaking ceremony last year in November. Chawla is the aide of global terrorist Hafiz Saeed and had earlier released videos issuing a threat to India in support of Khalistani terror.

It is to be noted that India and Pakistan will hold their first meeting to finalise the modalities, three months after the two countries agreed on the project. New Delhi is likely to press for hassle-free travel of Indian pilgrims to the Pakistani side besides asking Islamabad to ensure that no propaganda by Khalistani separatists is allowed at the pilgrimage site, PTI reported.

To be noted that in last year, there were reports that pro-Khalistan banners were shown to the pilgrims who were on their way to two Sikh shrines and apart from this Indian diplomats were forced to leave the Sachcha Sauda Gurdwara when they arrived there to meet Indian Sikh pilgrims. It was Chawla who had forced the diplomats to leave the Gurdwara.
