Indian army's largest ever security cover for Amarnath Yatra pilgrims

Unperturbed by the looming terror threat, pilgrims who set out on the Amarnath Yatra today said their unflinching faith in Lord Shiva and the security forces had motivated them to undertake the journey to the cave shrine in south Kashmir Himalayas.
The first batch of nearly 3,000 pilgrims today left the Bhagwati Nagar base camp here amid tight security. The batch was escorted by CRPF personnel and a special motorbike squad equipped with cameras and various life-saving equipments.
Chants of "Bam Bam Bhole" and Bharat Mata ki Jai" filled the air as the enthusiastic pilgrims, including 520 women and 21 children, left the base camp. They are scheduled to reach the Baltal and Pahalgam base camps in Kashmir later in the day.
