Darshan

Shri Amarnathji Shrine Board (SASB) on Saturday announced its decision to allow the ongoing Amarnath Yatra only on alternate days due to the decreasing number of pilgrims.

More than 16,000 pilgrims had ‘Darshan’ of the cave shrine on the 13th day of the Amarnath Yatra, as another batch of 7,245 devotees left Jammu for the Kashmir Valley on Friday.

Since the annual Amarnath Yatra commenced on July 1, more than 1 lakh devotees have performed the pilgrimage so far as of Tuesday, officials said.
