Thirty-six Amarnath pilgrims sustained minor injuries after five buses in a yatra convoy collided near Chanderkoot in Ramban district due to brake failure. Officials ensured prompt medical aid, and the convoy resumed its journey after replacing damaged vehicles.
As many as 3.97 lakh pilgrims have so far paid obeisance at the shrine since the beginning of the 62-day-long annual pilgrimage on July 1. The yatra will conclude on August 31.
