Pakistani fans applying for the visas will have to compulsorily attach proof of their confirmed return journey tickets, hotel bookings for their stay in India as well as the match tickets. No arrivals by crossing the Wagah border checkpost on foot will be allowed.
According to sources in the Union home ministry, the proposal for having an Indian sponsor for every Pakistani spectator has been dispensed with.
This was done keeping in mind concerns expressed by Islamabad and the Pakistani Cricket Board, who opposed the mandatory sponsor rule for being skewed against genuine cricket fans who are unable to get a sponsor in India.
The number of visas to be issued is based on the match tickets that the BCCI intends to issue to Pakistanis.
The highest number for visas, 1,000, will be issued for the match at Delhi, the venue closest to Pakistan, while 500 Pakistanis each can watch the matches at Bangalore, Chennai, Ahmedabad and Kolkata.
Incidentally, a Pakistani will technically be able to get multi-city visa for all the five venues, provided he has the match tickets for all the five matches.
This is the first time a Pakistani will be issued visas for five cities, as proposed in the new bilateral visa regime that is yet to be operationalised.
