Shri Mata Vaishno Devi Shrine Board has issued an absolute prohibition on bringing cameras, laptops, and tablets into the sacred cave of Mata Vaishno Devi, citing security concerns and the need to preserve the shrine's holiness.
An official told that this is part of the Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) of the Shrine Board and will be implemented strictly by Jammu and Kashmir Police from the very start of Yatra to the holy cave of Shri Mata Vaishno Devi Ji Shrine.
“We have established multiple checkpoints starting from Ban Ganga and anyone found carrying these gadgets will be dealt with and the devices will be seized. We have established a process that anyone who wants to carry these gadgets needs to obtain permission from Police,” he added
The Shrine Board has also installed banners at several places asking pilgrims to ensure that they don’t carry cameras, laptops, and tablets on the yatra track. Pilgrims have been also advised by the Shrine Board to keep these gadgets at Katra before starting their journey towards the holy cave.
