The key Wagah border may get another international check point to ease the increasing traffic between India and Pakistan.
As trade between India and Pakistan was growing, the Ministry of Home Affairs has noted that there has been an increasing need to construct and open a second gate on the Attari-Wagah border with adequate infrastructure for transit and trade.
The Ministry is planning to rope in the Ministry of External Affairs soon to take up the issue with Islamabad as consent of Pakistan was essential to work beyond the fencing and up to the Zero Line and to construct the connecting route from the site of the Integrated Check Post (ICP) at Attari to the other side of the international border.
At present, there is only one entry and exit gate on the Attari-Wagah border. The gate experiences heavy traffic and crowding due to the retreat parade held every evening there
