Lightbulb Southern Indian border with Pakistan - The Khokhrapar-Munabao crossing

Overland from Mumbai to Karachi - without having to go through the northern Wagah / Atari border - might just become reality when the Khokhrapar-Munabao landborder crossing is opened.

India looking at opening two border points with Pakistan


The southern Iran / Pakistan border at Jiwani will most likely remain a pipe dream for the years to come.

Cheers!

I hope it happens this time. BTW theoretically Muzaffarabad/Srinagar and Chamb border is also open with busses and trucks crossing.

Muzaffarabad/Srinagar is only for Pakistani/Indian citizens unfortunately :-(

'Chamb' border - where is that? Google drew a blank.

You are right. Wagah is the only working border for foreigners. Although the Chakothi border is supposed to be operational for locals, I dont know a single person who could go on this short journey.

The other working border for the locals is probably Chamb/Rawalakot border. This is also only theoretically open for locals but a few trucks are passing with tomatoes and onions.

I hope it will improve, costs nothing to be optimistic.
Cheers
