THE GREEN BROADCAST Newsletter by Creative Group Sept- Dec 2019
On the eve of 550th anniversary of Guru Nanak Dev Ji, a messenger of god, missionary and reformist who preached oneness, harmony and unity, Shri Narendra Modi, Prime Minister of India and Prime Minister of Pakistan unanimously took an initiative to open up a corridor so that pilgrims from both the countries could visit various shrines of Guru Nanak at Kartarpur.
“This dream project is visualized as a physical homage to the great Guru Nanak Dev ji and also to create the sensitivity of Art & Architecture in symbolizing the universal message of oneness and humanity.”
The project brief was aimed at providing comprehensive architectural services for the terminal building which will house adequate immigration and customs clearance facilities to process the smooth movement of nearly 10,000 pilgrims per day. The building form originates from Khanda, of Sikhism symbolizing unity, peace, and sending out a universal message of global brotherhood and coexistence. The gateway crowning the port with the composition of 5 petals symbolizes the 5 vows of Sikhism.
“This was a very challenging project with such magnitude and international importance that had to be designed and tendered within 2-3 weeks and constructed on a site area of 50 acres, with 3000 tons of steel and executed within 4-5 months.�
