Modi Thanks Pakistan PM for 'Cooperation' on Visa-Free Sikh Corridor
[AnNahar] Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi thanked his Pak counterpart Imran Khan
...aka The Great Khan, who who convinced himself that playing cricket qualified him to lead a nuclear-armed nation with severe personality disorders...
on Saturday for his "cooperation" on a visa-free corridor allowing Indian Sikhs to visit one of their religion's holiest sites across the border in Pakistain.

"I would like to thank the Prime Minister of Pakistain, Imran Khan, for respecting the sentiments of India. I thank him for his cooperation," Modi said in televised comments from the inauguration of the corridor on the Indian side of the border, in a rare message of gratitude between the nuclear arch-rivals.

#3 Yupp. And any military would. We voiced our concerns over this too, but the value of sikh votes was found greater than grunt lives or national security.
