Katra, Jammu and Kashmir: Due to persistent bad weather, the pilgrimage to the holy shrine of Shri Mata Vaishno Devi has been temporarily suspended. Thousands of devotees from across the country are waiting for the pilgrimage to resume in Katra and to have darshan of the Mother Goddess. In this difficult situation, the Shri Mata Vaishno Devi Shrine Board is making every effort to assist the stranded devotees

One devotee says, "I have come from Patna, Bihar... There is provision for food and drink here, no money was charged, everything is fine. But I am very sad that I am not able to have darshan of the Mother Goddess... It would have been very comforting if I had been able to have darshan of the Mother Goddess"
