The Vaishno Devi pilgrimage has resumed after being suspended for 22 days due to a landslide on August 26. Devotees have once again started queuing in long lines at Katra for registration as the pilgrimage reopens to coincide with the Navratri festival. The halt in the journey caused significant disruption, but with permission granted now, thousands of devotees are eager to resume their spiritual trek. The reopening has brought relief and enthusiasm among pilgrims, who can now continue their revered journey after nearly a month’s pause. The registration counters at Katra are witnessing heavy footfall, highlighting the pilgrimage’s importance during this auspicious period.
