Amarnath
The yatra has been suspended along both Baltal and Pahalgam routes after heavy rains lashed Jammu and Kashmir's Srinagar
The Amarnath Yatra in Jammu and Kashmir was halted today for the consecutive second day due to heavy rains.
The yatra has been suspended along both Baltal and Pahalgam routes after heavy rains lashed Jammu and Kashmir's Srinagar.
The police have restricted the movements of pilgrims from the Bhagwati Nagar Yatri Niwas for the holy cave Shrine since Wednesday after a landslide struck the Baltal route on Tuesday.
Flash flood followed by the landslide had killed at least five pilgrims en route to the Amarnath Yatra in Jammu and Kashmir valley on Tuesday.
Earlier six people including three pilgrims who were on their way to the Amarnath shrine, a BSF soldier, one palanquin carrier and one Yatra volunteer had also died.
The Yatra to the holy cave shrine started on June 28.
