Uttarakhand Chardham Yatra has received tremendous response. However, pilgrims are currently stranded due to heavy rains and landslides in Uttarakhand. Due to this, the Badrinath National Highway is closed. Apart from this, other roads are also closed. But if we talk about the overall Chardham Yatra, this time the devotees have broken all the old records in the Chardham Yatra. This time a tremendous craze was seen for Gangotri and Yamunotri Dham.
How many devotees came to Gangotri?
Earlier, out of the four Dhams, fewer pilgrims used to come to Gangotri and Yamunotri Dham as compared to other Dhams, but this time a large number of devotees have reached Gangotri and Yamunotri for darshan. Compared to last year, the number of devotees in both the temples has doubled. Last year more than 12 thousand devotees had reached Gangotri on time. This time this figure has reached 19 thousand per day. This can be called the largest number in the history of Chardham Yatra.
How many devotees came to Yamunotri?
Last year, a maximum of 9,000 devotees visited Yamunotri every day. This time, this figure has reached 15,000 devotees every day. This time, for the first time in the Char Dham Yatra, the government had to work harder to control the crowd in Yamunotri and Gangotri Dham than in Badrinath and Kedarnath.
How many devotees came to Kedarnath?
This time the number of devotees in Kedarnath Dham has broken all the records of previous years. The number of devotees visiting Kedarnath Dham daily has reached 34 thousand. Whereas earlier this number was limited to 15 to 20 thousand per day. This time the maximum number of devotees visiting Badrinath Dham was 28 thousand per day. In previous years this number was maximum 16 thousand.
Chardham Yatra broke records!
It is worth noting that this time heavy traffic was seen towards Yamunotri during the Chardham Yatra. In such a situation, the Uttarakhand government is preparing to develop the road from Vikasnagar to Yamunotri Dham. So that a large number of devotees can participate. It is worth noting that this time the number of devotees in Chardham has crossed 30 lakhs. The steps taken by the government to make the Chardham Yatra organized and safe have proved to be very effective.
