Char Dham Yatra 2024: Chardham Yatra has started. On May 10, the doors of Kedarnath, Yamunotri and Gangotri were opened. The doors of Badrinath were opened on 12th March. Since then, a large number of devotees are continuously leaving for the Chardham pilgrimage. So far, more than 26 lakh registrations have been done for the Chardham Yatra. More than 3 lakh people have visited Chardham. Since the beginning of Chardham Yatra, 11 people have died so far. Four people who died were suffering from diabetes as well as blood pressure. There are many devotees who have left without registration to visit Chardham or just to visit Kedarnath and Badrinath. The result of this is that people are facing severe traffic jams on the routes leading to Chardham.
Ban on making videography and reels in Chardham temple complex
At some places there is traffic jam on different routes leading to Chardham and at some places devotees have to wait standing in long queues for hours. The arrangements made by the administration during the Chardham Yatra have broken down. In such a situation, the devotees going on Chardham Yatra should note that now the administration has taken an important and big decision. In fact, Uttarakhand Chief Secretary Radha Raturi has extended the ban on VIP darshan till May 31 in view of the huge crowd of pilgrims in the Chardham Yatra. This has been done so that the devotees who are stuck in long queues and have started protesting, can have darshan of all the four streams. Radha Raturi has taken another such important decision. In fact, now videography, photography or making reels has also been banned within the scope of Chardham temples.
Chardham Yatra, now you will not be able to make reels
As per the order, a ban has been imposed on making reels for social media and doing videography within a radius of 50 meters of the Chardham temple. Orders in this regard have also been sent to Tourism Secretary and Garhwal Division Commissioner, DM and SP. In such a situation, if devotees or travelers are seen doing photography, videography and making reels within 50 meters of the Chardham temple, then action can be taken against them by the administration. Let us inform those devotees who are thinking of going on Chardham Yatra. They should try to postpone their travel for some time. Not only this, if you are going to visit Chardham, then it would be better if you do not go without registration. Because the reason for the breakdown of arrangements during the Chardham Yatra has also been attributed to those people who reached Devbhoomi in large numbers without registration. Due to this people are facing many problems.
Those traveling to Chardham should keep these things in mind
- The reason for the chaos is also being said to be people arriving on Chardham Yatra without registration or before the given date. In such a situation, the thing to note is that if you are thinking of going on a Chardham pilgrimage, then do not go without registration. Also, even after registration, keep taking information related to your journey from the administrative officials, so that you continue to get information about the system and the correct situation.
- If you are going to visit Chardham, then try to use public transport. Because private vehicles have become the real cause of jam. Because a large number of people are reaching Chardham Yatra in private vehicles. The roads are narrow in the mountains. In such a situation, the jam-like situation has troubled the people. It is advisable to travel to Chardham by private vehicle only if it is absolutely necessary.
- If you are going on a pilgrimage to Chardham, then do not try to reach or leave anywhere in a hurry. Complete your journey comfortably. Also stay in touch with administrative officials and keep taking stock of the current situation. So that you can know what are the conditions at the place where you are planning to go to the next stop.
- If you are going on a trip to Chardham, then keep in mind that Chardham is not a picnic spot. One of the most sacred religious places of Sanatan Dharma. In such a situation, maintain the sanctity of the place and avoid making reels at various places and try not to carry too much luggage with you. Also, one thing to be noted is that one should avoid making noise.
- Those going on Chardham pilgrimage should pay attention to and follow the instructions of the officers and policemen deployed for your safety. Recently, in view of the crowd that had reached Yamunotri, the administration had appealed to the people to postpone their journey for that day, despite this people reached there, as a result of which the government machinery failed and the systems collapsed.
