There is little place for hostility as Pakistani border officials cross over to India to celebrate the three-day border festival at the nondescript shrine of Baba Dileep Singh Manhas, popularly known as Baba Chambliyal, located 28 miles from Jammu and barely one third mile from the Zero Line. Baba Chambliyal, after whom the village is named, lived about 300 years ago and was revered by the people for his spiritual powers. While nearly 20,000 people thronged the shrine here, over 40,000 took part in the week-long mela on the Pakistani side.
