Injured have been shifted to nearby hospitals in Jammu's Reasi district & search operation is underway to track down militants who opened fire at bus, say police.
A cloudburst incident took place Friday at the holy cave area of Amarnath, which resulted in a heavy discharge of water in the ‘Nallah’, adjoining the holy cave.
Govt hopes for double the footfall of last Amarnath Yatra in 2019, which was curtailed ahead of scrapping of Article 370. The 2020 and 2021 editions were cancelled due to Covid.
Yatra will be symbolic and virtual aartis will allow devotees to pay obeisance while avoiding travel and exposure to the infection, said J&K L-G Manoj Sinha.
The decision on Amarnath Yatra is taken by an advisory committee in J&K administration. The Centre can also recommend the same. The final call is taken by a shrine committee.
The 56-day yatra to the 3,880-metre-high shrine is scheduled to start from the twin routes of Pahalgam and Baltal on 28 June and culminate on 22 August.
Police & Army say militants are picking ‘soft targets’ but Yatra will be protected, reveal that Hizbul & Lashkar operatives are joining outfits like AGH to revive them.
Kashmir Inspector General Vijay Kumar said checkpoints will be increased and some camps will be shifted. The 56-day yatra is scheduled to start on 28 June and end on 22 August.
