Mata Vaishno Devi Yatra Continues To Remain Suspended For 8th Consecutive Day

Reasi : The Shri Mata Vaishno Devi Yatra continued to remain suspended for the eighth consecutive day on Tuesday due to persistent bad weather conditions in the Trikuta hills in the Reasi district of Jammu and Kashmir.
Authorities have restricted the movement of pilgrims from the Katra base camp as a precautionary measure due to safety concerns arising from continuous rainfall, landslides, and flash floods in the region.
The suspension has left the base camp and adjoining areas with a deserted look, as many devotees wait for the resumption of the pilgrimage. The Reasi district administration and shrine board officials are closely monitoring the situation, while restoration work on damaged routes and roads is underway. (Agencies)
