Liyaqat Ali, a resident of Baramulla who returned from Pakistan, said, “I went to Pakistan in December last year to meet my maternal uncle and got stuck due to Covid-induced restrictions… I am happy to be back home after 6 months.”
Meanwhile, three Pakistani fishermen who were caught in Indian waters off Gujarat coast in 2016 and a Lahore resident who was arrested in Punjab's Tarn Taran in 2017 were released and went to Pakistan via Attari-Wagah border, confirmed Arunpal Singh.
Lahore resident Mohammad Rizwan told media, "I was a tailor in Lahore and crossed the border inadvertently when I had come to witness the August 15 parade in 2017. I'm going home after 4 years. I thank the Indian government for releasing me today."
