Amid heightened tensions with India, Pakistan on Wednesday stopped the Samjhauta Express. The train was scheduled to depart from Lahore on Thursday and as per reports the passengers have been told by the authorities on their side to not arrive at the railway station.
The Samjhauta Express, named after the Hindi word for "understanding", comprises six sleeper coaches and an AC 3-tier coach. The train was inaugurated in the 1970s under the terms of the peace treaty that settled the war between the two nations in 1971.
