The case of Sarabjit Kaur, a Punjabi woman who fled India to Pakistan, is once again in the news. A recently surfaced audio clip shows Sarabjit speaking emotionally to her husband on the phone. During the conversation, she says she is feeling unwell in Pakistan and wants to return to India soon. She says she is facing severe mental and financial distress there.
In the audio, Sarabjit explains that she made a mistake and that the situation is now beyond her control. She says she is struggling financially and is struggling to meet her daily needs. According to Sarabjit, she doesn’t even have proper clothes to wear.
It is noteworthy that some time ago, Pakistan’s Minister of State for Interior, Mohammad Talal Chaudhry, accepted Sarabjit’s plea for an extension of his visa and refused to deport him. Following this decision, it was believed that Sarabjit would remain in Pakistan, but the audio recordings that have now surfaced reveal his changed circumstances and his desire to return to India.
According to reports, Sarabjit Kaur traveled to Pakistan with a group of Sikh pilgrims for the birth anniversary of Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji. During this time, she married a young man named Nasir. The issue has once again come under the spotlight after the release of this audio clip of Sarabjit.
