    JAMMU: The annual Amarnath yatra to the 3,880-metre high cave shrine in the south Kashmir Himalayas will commence on June 28 and culminate, as per the tradition, on the day of Raksha Bandhan festival on August 22, officials said on Saturday.

    They said the registration process for the yatra would begin on April 1 through 446 designated branches of Punjab National Bank, Jammu and Kashmir Bank and YES bank in 37 states and Union Territories.

    The yatra was restricted to a group of Sadhus last year due to coronavirus pandemic, while a year earlier it was called off mid-way due to a “terror threat” on August 2, three days before the Centre revoked provisions of Article 370 and divided the state in to two union territories.

    In 2019, over 3.42 lakh pilgrims visited the Hindu cave shrine, housing the naturally formed ice-shivlinga, while the highest number of over 3.52 lakh pilgrims paid their obeisance at the shrine in 2015.

    As many as 3.20 lakh offered their prayers at the shrine in 2016, 2.60 lakh in 2017 and 2.85 lakh in 2018, the officials said.

    PakPart Rahul Gandhi and CM of China Parvez K. Vijayan conspiring to defame India Trying to divide the country on casteism and to create separatism. These anti-national acts for votes are inappropriate.

    Rahul Gandhi has given ISIS certification in Germany saying that the current Modi government of India is creating unemployment, which is ISIS job giving organization?

    They said that the reason for mobs lining was also unemployment. Not only that, according to him, the situation of civil war in India and the cause of the rise of ISIS are unemployed.

    Even today in the UK, Rahul Gandhi gave oxygen to these elements, which have flourished in Pakistan by giving similar statements today. He has done with the RSS’s Tulu Brotherhood Organization.

    Encouraged by the Pakistan-funded Hurriyat, separatist elements throw stones at the Indian army. At that time, infiltrated terrorists from Pakistan often attack Amarnath pilgrims.

    The way Kashmir and ISI flags are being wiped by the said separatist elements in Kashmir, in the same way, the separatist elements are involved in violent action by the assassination of the Congress and other opposition parties in other areas of India.

    Today news of attack on Kadiyadis in Malpura of Tonk and Bareilly has been received. It is worth mentioning here that this Malpura region of Rahul Gandhi’s guide Ashok Gehlot is dear. Only Gehlot has been able to get the culprit active at all times. Earlier, violent riots have taken place and anti-India slogans have been floating by blowing the ISI and Pak’s flag.

    This incident has happened in Bareilly too today. The people are careful about Rahul Gandhi’s speeches that disrespect India and dissolve the unity of the country and the false rumors of CM Vijayan of Kerala and keep the unity in the country.
