The only Punjabi ruler till today who ruled United Punjab and gave some dignity to the land and the people. No one in Punjab's history has ruled so wisely.

2/3 Punjab was given to Pakistan and 1/3 to India. there are many cultural links between these punjabs on both the side. Let every Sikh roam free in this area.

Nawaz should walk through the mausoleum , it may diffuse some administrative skill. It is also a good political move.
