The pilgrims left the Bhagwati Nagar base camp in the early hours here under tight security arrangements, a police official said.

While 55 of the pilgrims including six women are performing the Yatra from the shortest 12-km Baltal route, the rest of the pilgrims including four women have opted for the 36-km traditional Pahalgam route, the official said.

The 60-day annual Yatra commenced from the twin tracks on June 28 and is scheduled to conclude on August 26 coinciding with ‘Raksha Bandhan’ festival.

Till last evening, a total of 2,77,215 pilgrims had paid their obeisance at the cave shrine which houses the naturally formed ice-Shivlingam.

However, the number of pilgrims undertaking the Yatra has witnessed a sharp dip over the past fortnight owing to early melting of the naturally formed ice-Shivlingam at the sanctum sanctorum.
