BRO conquers the impossible with road to Amarnath Shrine: Vikramaditya

JAMMU, November 11: Former MLC Vikramaditya Singh today lauded the Border Roads Organization (BRO) for accomplishing a feat that many considered impossible, constructing a road to the sacred Amarnath Shrine.

In a statement issued today, Vikramaditya Singh expressed deep concern about the potential environmental damage that could be caused to the fragile ecosystem of the region as a result of increased vehicular traffic ferrying devotees to the holy Cave Shrine. He cautioned that the increased influx of pilgrims could lead to pollution, littering, and other disruptions to the delicate environment.

The former MLC emphasized the need for a comprehensive environmental management plan to minimize the impact of the road construction and increased pilgrimage on the region’s ecology. He urged the authorities to prioritize sustainable practices and environmental protection measures to preserve the pristine beauty of the Amarnath pilgrimage route.

“We must ensure that the construction of the road and the increased pilgrimage do not come at the cost of the environment,” he said, adding “We must work together to protect the fragile ecosystem of the Amarnath region for future generations.”
