Shri Mata Vaishno Devi Yatra: There is a great news for the devotees waiting for the cheers of ‘Jai Mata Di’. The journey of mother Vaishno Devi, which has been stopped for the last three days due to bad weather and heavy rains, has been started once again from 17 September. After this news, thousands of devotees trapped on the Katra Base Camp and Yatra route have breathed a sigh of relief.
The weather was made villain
The Shrine Board administration had decided to temporarily stop the journey as a precaution in view of the continuous heavy rains and landslides in Jammu and Kashmir for the last few days. Due to rain, the travel route had increased slippery and there was also a threat to landslides, giving priority to the safety of the devotees.
The weather will still be monitored
However, after seeing the improvement in the weather this morning, the journey has been allowed to resume, but the administration is still fully cautious. Officials say that the operation of the yatra will depend on the weather conditions even further. If the weather deteriorates again or the rainfall intensifies, the journey can be stopped again in view of the safety of the devotees.
Currently, the traditional route has been opened to go from Katra to the building. In addition, services like helicopter and battery cars have also been restored as the weather clears. The Shrine Board has appealed to the devotees to know the weather condition before starting the journey and strictly follow the guidelines issued by the administration.
