New Delhi: The annual Amarnath Yatra was suspended on Friday due to bad weather as rain lashed many parts of Kashmir, officials said.
The yatra was suspended along both the Baltal and the Pahalgam routes, they said, according to a PTI report.
“The yatra has been suspended and no pilgrim is being allowed to move towards the holy cave shrine this morning,” the officials said.
On Thursday, 17,202 pilgrims paid obeisance at the holy cave shrine, taking the cumulative total of devotees who have had ‘darshan’ of the natural ice lingam formation in the south Kashmir Himalayas to 84,768 so far.
