Jammu, September 3:
A landslide occurred near Samar Point on the way to Mata Vaishno Devi Darshan Marg in Reasi district on Wednesday. It is a matter of relief that no devotee was present on the spot during this time. So there was no loss of life.
According to the administration, in view of the continuous heavy rains and the possibility of landslides, the places where the officials are staying have been evacuated as a precaution. The work of removing the debris fallen on the road is going on.
The base camp at Katra looks completely empty as devotees are not reaching there in view of security.
Officials said that efforts will be made to reopen the route as soon as the weather becomes normal.
