HYDERABAD: Telangana’s in-charge Director General of Police Anjani Kumar today spoke to S M Sahai, Additional DGP (Law and Order) of Jammu and Kashmir, regarding the safety of around 8,000 Amarnath pilgrims from Telangana and Andhra Pradesh who are in the northern state.
The pilgrims have been stopped from proceeding to Amarnath. The yatra remained suspended for second consecutive day today from Jammu in the wake of the killing of a top Hizbul Mujahideen commander in an encounter with security forces in Kashmir Valley.
Kumar also requested Sahai to make arrangement for providing food, medicines and shelter to these pilgrims.
The pilgrims would start return journey back to Hyderabad late this evening, he said. (AGENCIES)
