However, the high court stated that it cannot remove the ban on the yatra unless directed by the Supreme Court where the matter is pending.
The Uttarakhand government on Tuesday approached the high court in Nainital seeking the resumption of the Chardham Yatra. However, the high court stated that it cannot remove the ban on the yatra unless directed by the Supreme Court where the matter is pending. The high court had put a stay on the Chardham Yatra on June 28, citing the lack of proper health facilities in districts through which Chardham Yatra passes and the threat of the third wave of the COVID-19 pandemic. However, on July 6, the state government had filed a special leave petition in the Supreme Court against the high court order.More Related News
