Char Dham Yatra Preparation: Authorities conduct mock drill exercise

Dehradun (Uttarakhand), June 30, 2025 (ANI): Authorities conducted mock drill exercise on weather conditions and Char Dham Yatra preparation in Uttarakhand’s Dehradun on June 30. Vinay Shankar Pandey, Garhwal Divisional Commissioner, held a meeting with officials and reviewed the preparations. Heavy rain disrupted the electricity supply in Agrakhaal, Chamba, Jakhindhar, and Dughamandar areas. Meanwhile, the 24-hour suspension of the Char Dham Yatra has now been lifted. The ban had been imposed following a heavy rain alert on June 29, 2025. The Yatra was suspended after a cloudburst near Barkot triggered a massive landslide, killing two workers and leaving seven others missing.
