🚨 Major Decision Amid Heavy Rain Alert

The Himachal Pradesh administration has temporarily suspended several high-altitude religious yatras due to continuous rainfall and increasing danger in mountain regions.

Officials said this step has been taken as a precautionary safety measure for pilgrims and rescue teams.

The higher Himalayan regions are currently facing:

• Unstable weather conditions
• Frequent cloudbursts
• Slippery trekking routes
• Falling rocks in multiple areas

Authorities warned that conditions may worsen in the coming days.

🏔️ Which Yatras Are Affected?

The suspension mainly impacts major pilgrimages, including:

• Kinnaur Kailash Yatra
• Shrikhand Mahadev Yatra
• Several high-altitude trekking routes in Kullu and Lahaul-Spiti regions

These routes pass through extremely risky terrain, where even light rainfall can trigger landslides or block narrow mountain paths.
