Pertinently four specialized teams comprising officials of Revenue, Police, RDD, SDRF, F&ES, IFC and PWD have been designated to conduct a thorough physical audit of the entire route from Nunwan Base Camp upto the Holy Cave. Acting as the key part of the district administration’s preparation efforts, each team has a well-defined jurisdiction/stretch for ensuring a holistic assessment of the ground conditions.
During the review, the Deputy Commissioner emphasized the critical importance of meticulously capturing every detail along the track, from the structural integrity of the paths to the strategic placement of utility points. He asked the teams to assess the possible impact of seasonal weather on the terrain, and verify the readiness of sites designated for medical camps, shops, tents, langars, and emergency shelters during the Yatra period.
Dr. Bilal on the occasion directed for organising a proper training session forthwith for the departing parties so that they perform the assigned tasks with utmost precision and efficiency.
