The record
Written from the 1 report below. Nothing here is unsourced.
- The Amarnath Yatra has been suspended for a fourth consecutive day due to severe weather, landslides, and falling stones in Jammu and Kashmir.
- The Jammu-Kashmir National Highway (NH-44) remains closed, disrupting traffic and prompting authorities to halt the pilgrimage as a precaution for pilgrim safety.
- When the yatra was first stopped on Sunday, pilgrims were housed at the Chandarkot Ramban yatri niwas and Lambar Ground Banihal.
- The pilgrimage, which began on July 3 and runs until August 28, can only resume once NH-44 reopens and the weather improves.
What to watch next
- Restoration of traffic on NH-44, which is a precondition for the yatra to resume
- Weather conditions in the region, on which the resumption depends
- Official advisories for pilgrims on when to travel
