Manimahesh Yatra: Daily pilgrim limit set at 5,000; Kugti route restricted

Following last year’s devastating flash floods, the Chamba administration has introduced strict safety measures for the upcoming Manimahesh Yatra. The pilgrimage will feature a daily quota of 5,000 devotees, mandatory online registration via an e-pass system, drone surveillance, and the closure of the hazardous Kugti parikrama route.
