Govt plans to add tour package to Amarnath Yatra
The Centre and the Jammu and Kashmir government are planning to integrate the annual Amarnath Yatra with other nearby tourist destinations. Under this, pilgrims will be taken to tourist spots like Gulmarg and Dal lake, besides the cave shrine of Amarnath situated in J&K at a height of 12,756 feet. The proposal is aimed at boosting the local economy.
