Snowfall brings Kedarnath Yatra to a halt

Kedarnath Yatra was halted following the fresh snowfall at famous Himalayan shrine and nearby areas. Pilgrims were asked to wait in Sonprayag until the weather conditions improve. Yatra was called off as the nearby areas of shrine received snowfall said Rudraprayag SP Barinderjit singh. It is known that the shrine was opened on May 4 after six months winter break.

On the other hand the high priest of the temple suggested devotees to postpone the yatra until a week, as road conditions are not safe for the yatra.
