April 15, 2024: Starting today, devotees from across the country and around the world can begin their registration for the Char Dham Yatra. The registration website will open at 7 AM this morning. Additionally, registration services are available through a mobile app, WhatsApp number, and toll-free helpline.
Registration is mandatory for pilgrims undertaking the journey to Kedarnath, Badrinath, Gangotri, and Yamunotri Dham.
Preparations for registration have been completed by the Tourism Department following the announcement of the Char Dham Yatra opening date. This year, registration facilities are being provided 25 days prior to the commencement of the Char Dham Yatra. This will allow pilgrims from outside the state to plan and register for their journey easily.
Pilgrims from any part of the country can register through four mediums. Registration requires providing names, mobile numbers, details of accompanying members, and addresses for identification.
