The disaster struck on Tuesday afternoon, around 3 pm, when heavy rains triggered a massive landslide near the Inderprastha Bhojnalaya at Adhkuwari, about halfway along the 12-kilometre trek from Katra to the shrine.<\/p>\n<p>On Wednesday, the Shri Mata Vaishno Devi yatra was suspended due to a landslide and heavy rainfall. Jammu and Kashmir Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha has ordered the constitution of a high-level three-member committee to investigate the causes of the landslide.<\/p>\n<p>Shaleen Kabra, Additional Chief Secretary of the Department of Jal Shakti, Jammu and Kashmir, will head the committee, which includes the Divisional Commissioner and the Inspector General of Police, Jammu.<\/p>\n<p>According to an official order, the committee also includes the Divisional Commissioner and the Inspector General of Police, Jammu.<\/p>\n<p>The committee has been tasked with conducting a detailed investigation and submitting its report within two weeks to LG Sinha, who is also the chairman of the Shri Mata Vaishno Devi Shrine Board (SMVDSB), it said.<\/p>\n<p>The order has stated that the Committee shall examine in detail the causes and reasons behind the incident and point out any lapses, assess responses in the form of rescue and relief measures undertaken, and suggest appropriate SOPs and measures for preventing recurrence of such incidents in the future, the order said.<\/p>\n<p>On Friday, the Shri Mata Vaishno Devi Shrine Board (SMVDSB) expressed profound grief over the tragic loss of pilgrims\u2019 lives in the natural disaster on August 26. It clarified the factual details to counter misleading media reports, said an official.<\/p>\n<p>In a statement issued by SMVDSB, \u201cA few media reports have been circulating since yesterday alleging that Shri Mata Vaishno Devi Yatra was allowed to proceed in complete disregard to weather advisories and at the expense of pilgrim safety. Shri Mata Vaishno Devi Shrine Board (SMVDSB) expresses deep sorrow and pain at the unfortunate loss of lives of pilgrims in the natural disaster on 26th August, and places on record the correct factual position to dispel the impression being created by the insinuating media reports. The Board categorically denies the allegations as false and baseless.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_32139\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-32139\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-32139\" src=\"https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/PTI08_27_2025_000013B-1024x577-1-300x169.jpeg\" alt=\"Shree Mata Vaishno Devi Yatra remains suspended for sixth consecutive day\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" srcset=\"https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/PTI08_27_2025_000013B-1024x577-1-300x169.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/PTI08_27_2025_000013B-1024x577-1-768x433.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/PTI08_27_2025_000013B-1024x577-1-549x309.jpeg 549w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/PTI08_27_2025_000013B-1024x577-1-470x265.jpeg 470w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/PTI08_27_2025_000013B-1024x577-1-233x131.jpeg 233w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/PTI08_27_2025_000013B-1024x577-1-230x130.jpeg 230w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/PTI08_27_2025_000013B-1024x577-1-360x203.jpeg 360w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/PTI08_27_2025_000013B-1024x577-1-100x56.jpeg 100w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/PTI08_27_2025_000013B-1024x577-1.jpeg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-32139\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Shree Mata Vaishno Devi Yatra remains suspended for sixth consecutive day<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>KATRA: The Shree Mata Vaishno Devi yatra remains suspended for the sixth consecutive day on Sunday after landslides triggered continuous rainfall in the region.
