Preparations should be made to make the upcoming Char Dham yatra smooth. To strengthen all the arrangements for the Char Dham Yatra, all processes for forming the Yatra Authority should be completed by January 30, 2025. By January 15, a meeting should be held with the priest and stakeholders for their suggestions. For a well-organised yatra, the system of registration should be streamlined by making better use of technology", Dhami said.
