KATRA – Mr. Ramesh Kumar, Chief Executive Officer, Shri Mata Vaishno Devi Shrine Board informed that the natural Cave of Shri Mata Vaishno Devi Ji was opened today for darshan for the devotees as per usual practice in vogue. Every year the natural Cave is opened for pilgrims after Makar Sankranti.
The CEO has asked the SDM Bhawan to regulate the darshan through natural Cave considering the yatra rush and congestion at Bhawan to avoid any inconvenience to the pilgrims. Normally pilgrims are allowed from the natural Cave when the daily yatra comes below the 10,000 mark.
