Amarnath Yatra 2023: With less than a week to go before the commencement of the Amarnath Yatra, Director General of Central Reserve Police Force SL Thaosen on Sunday reviewed the security arrangements at the Baltal base camp and several halting stations which are en route to the holy cave shrine.
"The success of this monumental event hinges upon our collective commitment and unparalleled coordination," Thaosen said.
The annual pilgrimage to the shrine, which is located at a height of 3,880 meters in the south Kashmir Himalayas, will commence on July 1 and continue till August 31.
Preparedness of CRPF for Yatra
A CRPF spokesperson said that the DG visited the camps located at Baltal, Domail, Sarbal and Neelgrath to review the operational and administrative preparedness of the CRPF deployed for the Amarnath Yatra 2023.
The DG inspected the camps to assess the arrangements for the yatra to ensure a safe atmosphere for the pilgrims, the spokesperson said.
Emphasising a zero-error policy, every aspect of security planning was scrutinised to mitigate any potential risks and ensure a seamless, secure and pleasant experience for the pilgrims, he said.
