The Chinar Corps restored the bridges overnight to ensure the resumption of pilgrimage for the annual Amarnath Yatra. Without the bridges, Amarnath pilgrims would have had to take a four-hour detour.
The bridges were damaged by landslides following swelling of Nalas near Kalimata on the Baltal route after a sudden increase in temperature.
"On 01 Jul, 02 bridges near Brarimarg on #Baltal Axis were damaged by landslides. #ChinarCorps mobilised assets & reconstructed the bridges overnight for resumption of route & avoiding an over 4 hour detour by #Yatris," Chinar Corps tweeted.
