The yatra remained suspended for the 12th consecutive day on Saturday with the weatherman forecasting the possibility of moderate rain or thunder showers over a few districts of Jammu division towards late night or early morning hours on September 7 and 8.

“A decision to resume the yatra will be taken next week. The track is cleared of the debris and is getting a facelift after the recent damage due to landslides triggered by heavy rains,” an official of the shrine board said.

The yatra was suspended hours before a landslide at Adhkuwari on August 26 claimed 34 lives and left 20 others injured.
