Jammu, June 7 -- The decision taken by the District Administration Kishtwar to suspend both the Shri Machail Mata Yatra 2026 and Shri Mindhal Mata Yatra 2026 for the day in view of adverse weather conditions prevailing across the district deserves full public support and praise because safety of the pilgrims is of paramount importance. In today's world, weather forecasting technology has become precisely perfect and it has become possible to predict severe weather events on real time basis. For sure, the administration of the aforementioned district had received the advanced report of the weather not behaving in the coming days and the decision of suspending these yatras must have been taken only after thorough deliberations.

It is pertine...
