The natural ice Shiva Lingam at the Amarnath cave in Jammu and Kashmir is melting rapidly due to unusually warm weather and low snowfall during the winter. With the annual Amarnath Yatra scheduled to begin on July 3, the shrinking size of the Lingam has caused concern among devotees. Environmentalists attribute this to climate change and rising temperatures in the Himalayan region. Despite this, the administration has assured that the pilgrimage will proceed as planned without any impact on darshan arrangements. Preparations at Baltal and Pahalgam routes are in their final stages. https://odishasambad.in/rising-temperatures-shrink-sacred-amarnath-ice-lingam/ #creator program
