Background
Amarnath Yatra takes place every year as millions of devotees trek through the mountains to Shri Amarnath Ji Shrine in South Kashmir in the summer months to pay their obeisance.
In 2022 and 2021, Amarnath Yatra could not be held because of the COVID-19 pandemic. The yatra was suspended even in 2019 a few days before August 5, when the Central Government abrogated Article 370 and decided to revoke the special status of Jammu and Kashmir, further dividing it into two Union Territories.
