Char Dham Yatra 2024: Char Dham Yatra has started. On May 10, the doors of Kedarnath, Yamunotri and Gangotri were opened. The doors of Badrinath were opened on 12 March. Since then a large number of devotees are going on the Chardham pilgrimage. So far, more than 26 lakh people have registered for Chardham Yatra. More than 3 lakh people have visited Chardham. Since the beginning of Chardham Yatra, 11 people have died so far. Four of the deceased had diabetes along with blood pressure. There are many devotees who have set out for Chardham Yatra without registration or just to visit Kedarnath and Badrinath. The result is that people are facing severe traffic jams on the roads leading to Chardham.
Ban on making videography and reels in Chardham temple complex
At some places, there is traffic jam on different routes leading to Chardham, while at other places devotees have to wait in long queues for hours. The arrangements made by the system during the Chardham Yatra have been disrupted. Meanwhile, the devotees going on Chardham Yatra should note that now the system has taken an important and big decision. Uttarakhand Chief Secretary Radha Raturi has extended the ban on VIP darshan till May 31 in view of the huge crowd of pilgrims in the Chardham Yatra. This has been done so that the devotees who are stuck in long queues and have started protesting can have darshan of Chardham. Another such important decision has been taken by Radha Raturi. However, now videography, photography or making reels has also been banned around the Chardham temple.
Chardham Yatra, can't make reel right now
According to the order, making reels for social media and doing videography within 50 meters of Chardham temple has been banned. In this regard, orders have also been sent to the Tourism Secretary and Commissioner, DM and SP of Garhwal Division. Meanwhile, if any devotee or pilgrim is seen doing photography, videography and making reels within 50 meters of the Chardham temple, action can be taken against them by the system.
It is noteworthy that devotees are thinking of going on Chardham Yatra. They should postpone their travel for some time. Not only this, if you are going on Chardham Yatra then it would be better not to go without registration. Because the reason for disruption of arrangements during the Chardham Yatra has also been attributed to the people who reached Devbhoomi in large numbers without registration. Due to this people are facing a lot of problems.
Those traveling to Chardham should keep these things in mind
Arrival of people on Chardham Yatra without registration or arriving before the scheduled date is also being said to be the reason for the chaos. Meanwhile, it is important that if you are planning to go on Chardham Yatra, then do not go at all without registration. Also, even after registration, keep taking information related to your journey from the system officials, so that you keep getting information about the system and proper status.
If you are going on a trip to Chardham, then try to use public transport. Because private vehicles have become the real cause of jam. Because a large number of people are reaching Chardham in private vehicles. The roads are narrow on the hills. Meanwhile, the jam-like situation has troubled the people. It is advisable to travel to Chardham by private vehicle only if absolutely necessary.
If you are going on Chardham Yatra, then do not try to reach or leave anywhere in a hurry. Complete your journey comfortably. Also, stay in touch with the system officials and keep informed about the current situation. So that you can know what is the situation at the place where you are going to set up your next camp.
If you are going on Chardham Yatra then keep in mind that Chardham is not a picnic spot. It is one of the most sacred religious places of Sanatan Dharma. Meanwhile, maintain the sanctity of that place and avoid making reels everywhere and do not carry too much stuff with you.
Chardham pilgrims should pay attention and follow the instructions of the officials and police personnel deployed for your safety. Seeing the large number of people who reached Yamunotri recently, the administration had appealed to the people to postpone their pilgrimage for today, but people arrived, due to which the government machinery failed and the arrangements were disrupted.
