Kedarnath: Temple doors closed ahead of Solar eclipse

India will witness 'Solar eclipse' on Sunday. A solar eclipse occurs on a new moon day when it comes in between the earth and the sun and all the three objects are aligned. Kedarnath Dham has closed its temple doors ahead of Solar eclipse. The doors will reopen tomorrow at noon which means after 16 hours.

In India, the obscuration of the sun by the moon at the time of the greatest phase of the annular eclipse will be nearly 98.6 per cent.
