Char Dham Yatra Suspended for Two Days Due to Landslides and Heavy Rainfall
The Char Dham Yatra in Uttarakhand was suspended for two days, July 28 and 29, due to landslides blocking pilgrimage routes and a heavy rainfall alert issued by the weather department. Officials, including Garhwal Commissioner Anand Swaroop, emphasized the suspension was for pilgrims' safety. The state administration has urged caution amid ongoing monsoon rains, advising residents and visitors to avoid non-essential travel and follow weather advisories. The pilgrimage will resume once conditions improve and routes are cleared.
