this is crazy... so, I managed to figure out that I can type in hindi in the title but not sure whats happening with this text! Hope ya'll can read this in Inglis! :)
So, crossing the border was almost uneventful except for the fact that there is no standard 15 day grace period for Canadians or Americans, as claimed at the Ministry of Interior Wagha Border office! So, essentially I was at the mercy of the five Pakistani Immigration officers, who after a detailed explanation let me go back to India as long as I 1. don't take this higher as they let me go on "humanitarian" grounds (i.e. no need to find my way back to Lahore and sit in an office for another 15 days waiting for an extension) and 2. don't give or accept any offers to bribe someone to cross. Quite the heartstopping event, if any of you have dealt with the desi borders! Followed by paying a guy Indian Rupees 75 (CDN $2) to get me a seat on the train from Amritsar to Delhi. Followed by funnily enough... Pakistani styled kababs near the Red Fort.
My phone number again is 91-997-131-3281
