Srinagar, Jun 25 : Pilgrimage to holy Amarnath cave shrine from traditional Pahalgam route will commence from tomorrow, Shri Amarnath Shrine Board (SASB) Chief Executive Officer (CEO) B B Vyas said here this afternoon.

The annual yatra is already progressing from shortest Baltal route since June 17. Yatra from Pahalgam route could not be started due to heavy snow accumulation on the track.
However, the decision to allow yatra from Pahalgam was taken by the chairman of the SASB, Governor N N Vohra after examining the report of the Joint Team (JY) comprising senior officers of the State administration, CEO and other officials of SASB, who visited the track before submitting the report yesterday morning.
