No restrictions on aarti in Amarnath shrine, clarifies NGT
Stating that no restrictions have been imposed on performing aarti and other rituals in Amarnath cave shrine, the National Green Tribunal on Thursday clarified that the silent zone restrictions will be imposed only around the Shivlinga. This comes after reports claimed that the tribunal had directed the Amarnath Shrine Board to restrict chanting of 'mantras' or 'jaykaras' in Amarnath temple.
