IndiaTimes Sunday, 6 July 2025 ()
A significant batch of 7,208 pilgrims embarked on the Shri Amarnath Yatra 2025 from Jammu, chanting "Bam Bam Bhole." Unfortunately, the journey faced a setback when a bus collision near Chanderkote injured 36 pilgrims due to brake failure. Despite the incident, the convoy of 310 vehicles continued under tight security towards the holy cave via Baltal and Pahalgam routes.
