[ad_1]

On the one hand, there is great enthusiasm among the devotees regarding the Chardham Yatra, on the other hand, the number of deaths during the Yatra is also increasing rapidly. So far this year, 24 devotees have died during the Kedarnath Yatra. Including 6 women and 18 men. The district administration is making all possible efforts to ensure that the devotees do not face any kind of trouble during the pilgrimage to Kedarnath Dham. From small hospitals to small centers have been opened at various places within 5 km from the Kedarnath Yatra route to the road. So that passengers can get checkup on time and they can get quick treatment.

But still 24 people died in 23 days. Heart attacks are said to be the cause of most deaths. In such a situation, the question arises that when the health department is making so many claims and paramedical staff and hospitals have been opened from Kedarnath to Sonprayag, Gaurikund and patients are being treated everywhere, then how come there are so many deaths? ? On the other hand, Chief Development Officer Naresh Kumar says that the health department is making all efforts.

After the death of devotees due to changing weather and frequent heart attacks in the state, the Dhami government has issued an advisory regarding the Chardham Yatra. According to the advisory, devotees have been advised to undergo a thorough check-up before starting the yatra. The main reason for this is that the temple is located at a height. The temple is at such a high altitude that people face problems due to cold, low humidity and low oxygen, so only completely healthy people should undertake the pilgrimage.
