Restoration work on the routes for the Char Dham Yatra in Uttarakhand after recent snowfall is underway, confirmed member of the Badrinath-Kedarnath Temple Committee (BKTC), Vinay Chandra Dosti, on Sunday. In a self-recorded video message posted on social media, Dosti noted that multiple teams from the temple committee and administrative department have resumed work to ensure the timely completion of arrangements for pilgrims.
“Despite continuous snowfall in Kedarnath, the weather has finally cleared. Now, teams from the temple committee and all concerned departments are working tirelessly to complete the preparatory tasks,” he said.
The development comes as the Uttarakhand government intensifies efforts to ensure smooth, hassle-free conduct of the annual pilgrimage, which is set to begin later this month.
Earlier, Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami chaired a review meeting with district officials and finalised plans, focusing on Yatra preparedness, law and order, and issues related to snow-affected areas.
During his media interaction, Dhami said, “All preparations for the Char Dham Yatra have been completed. Continuous review of it is ongoing. Every department is making proper preparations for the lakhs that are to be done. We will welcome all devotees coming to the Char Dham.”
While reacting to the women's reservation issue, he said, “Very historic work is happening in the country. The Women's Reservation Bill has been passed, and for the first time in the country, under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, women are going to get full reservation at the representation level.”
