The Situation in Kedarnath is not Good. Plan accordingly and stay safe in Kedarnath as things are not going well. The Char Dham Yatra's offline registration has been suspended until May 31 due to the large number of applicants.

According to the Uttar Pradesh administration, pilgrims from UP who plan to participate in the Char Dham Yatra in Uttarakhand shall only begin their journey after registering.

A video showing turmoil near the Sitapur area is doing the rounds on the Internet as a result of the massive number of visitors visiting the Kedarnath Temple in Uttarakhand. The Char Dham Yatra's offline registration has been suspended until May 31 due to the large number of applicants.

Almost a thousand pilgrims—the majority of whom are on foot—are seen in the now-viral footage caught in heavy traffic in the Sitapur area. Vans trapped in a small lane are seen in the footage. "Please watch this video if you want to come to Kedarnath," a man is heard urging. Only Sitapur is included here; Kedarnath is 40 kilometers away. The management is not taking any action to remove the throng because the facility is packed.

With over 2,69,000 views, the video raised questions regarding the pilgrims' safety. One person commented on the video, calling it "a tragedy waiting to happen." "Time to set limit of visitors in such places based on the load it can take, else disaster can strike," said a different user.

As to the official declaration of the Uttarakhand government, two Yatra Magistrates, namely Ashok Kumar Pandey and Pankaj Kumar Upadhyay, have been assigned to oversee the crowds at the temples of Badrinath and Kedarnath, respectively, between May 26 and June 6. This information was reported by ANI. They will be in charge of making sure everything is set up so that the Yatra runs well.
