Char Dham Yatra Suspended for Two Days Due to Heavy Rain Alerts in Uttarakhand
The Char Dham Yatra in Uttarakhand has been suspended from Saturday afternoon, September 26, until Sunday, September 27, due to 'red' and 'orange' rain alerts issued by the India Meteorological Department for multiple districts. The Garhwal Commissioner directed district magistrates to ensure pilgrim safety amid heavy rainfall forecasts. The suspension affects pilgrim movement to the four shrines—Yamunotri, Gangotri, Kedarnath, and Badrinath—and will be lifted once weather conditions improve. Authorities have advised pilgrims to stay in safe locations and follow official instructions.
