Amarnath Yatra To Begin On June 30, Last For 43 Days

Amarnath yatra: The decision to fix the date was taken at a meeting of the Shri Amarnathji Shrine Board chaired by Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha

The Amarnath yatra this year will start on June 30 and last 43 days, the Jammu and Kashmir Lieutenant Governor's office tweeted today. The decision to fix the date was taken at a meeting of the Shri Amarnathji Shrine Board chaired by Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha.

The Amarnath yatra was cancelled midway in 2019 just before special statue to Jammu and Kashmir was scrapped and it was divided into two Union Territories.

After that, only a symbolic yatra was observed in the last two years due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
