Fresh batch of pilgrims embark on Amarnath Yatra amid tightened security

On Friday morning, a new group of pilgrims departed from the Pantha Chowk Base Camp to begin their journey in the Amarnath Yatra amid heightened security.

The pilgrims set out for the sacred site, heading towards the base camps of the Baltal and Pahalgam Yatras, where they will connect with their faith and seek blessings.

The Shri Amarnathji Shrine Board organises the Amarnath Yatra, which is divided into two routes: one through Pahalgam and the other through Baltal. Baltal serves as the camping ground for pilgrims in the Ganderbal district of Jammu and Kashmir.

Almost all the pilgrims visiting the holy shrine said that they were satisfied with the services provided for the journey.

A pilgrim who is visiting the holy shrine for the first time said, “I am very happy to be part of the yatra. I had been planning it for a long time and this year I am able to do the yatra. The services are very good and I am happy to be here at the moment.”

This year, the Amarnath Yatra is taking place amid a significant increase in the number of terror attacks in Jammu and Kashmir.

On Monday, July 15, a brief exchange of fire occurred between security forces and terrorists late at night in the Bhatta area of Jammu and Kashmir’s Doda district.

Four soldiers lost their lives in the encounter that broke out in the Desa Forest area. Another encounter between security forces and terrorists took place in the Kastigarh area of Jammu and Kashmir’s Doda district, police said on Thursday.

The Jammu and Kashmir police and the army have been working together to search for terrorists in those areas.

This year, the yatra started on June 29 and will end on August 19, lasting 52 days. Devotees of Lord Shiva undertake this arduous annual pilgrimage to the holy cave located in the Kashmir Himalayas. (ANI)
