Jammu- The pilgrimage to the Mata Vaishno Devi shrine atop Trikuta hills in Jammu and Kashmir's Reasi district resumed Wednesday morning after remaining suspended for three days owing to inclement weather, officials said.

Board said the pilgrimage to the shrine restarted with the opening of all registration counters around 6 am on Wednesday.

The pilgrimage is progressing smoothly with hundreds of devotees leaving base camp Katra for the shrine.

The yatra to the shrine was suspended along with Machail Mata yatra in Kishtwar district on October 5 to 7 following prediction of widespread rainfall in the plain and snowfall in the high altitude areas.

Machail Mata yatra also resumed this morning with the improvement in the overall weather conditions, the officials said.
