Hemkund Sahib Yatra 2025: Medical facility will be available in Atlakoti, preparations in final stage

Preparations for Hemkund Sahib Yatra 2025 are in full swing. The holy doors of Hemkund Sahib are going to open for devotees on 25 May. This time many important steps have been taken keeping in mind the convenience and safety of the pilgrims. Special health services are being provided especially at Atlakoti, the most challenging and difficult stop on the Yatra route.

Medical relief post facility in Atlakoti

A medical relief post is being set up at Atlakoti, which is considered to be the most difficult stop on the Hemkund Yatra route. The District Magistrate has given instructions to prepare pre-fabricated huts at this place so that emergency medical assistance can be provided immediately.

Instructions to finalize preparations by May 20

In a high-level meeting regarding Hemkund Sahib Yatra 2025, the District Magistrate has instructed all the departments to complete all the arrangements by May 20. He clearly said that all the works should be completed in mission mode so that the devotees do not face any inconvenience.

Special attention on road and security arrangements

PMGYSY officials have been asked to complete the road repair (filling potholes etc.) work from Govindghat to Pulna in mission mode.

PWD has been instructed to install railings and indicators (sign boards) on the Astha Path from Pulna to Hemkund Sahib.

It has been made mandatory to install a board indicating the capacity of vehicles on the Bailey bridge of Govindghat.

The construction work of pre-fabricated hut for medical facility in Atlakoti is also going on at a fast pace.

Drinking water and electricity supply will be ensured

Instructions have been given to Jal Sansthan to ensure drinking water supply and Energy Corporation to ensure uninterrupted supply of electricity on the Yatra route. Apart from this, there is a plan to send a team of officials to Hemkund Sahib before the Yatra and inspect the spot.

Coordination with Gurudwara Management and Eco Development Committee

The District Magistrate has asked to coordinate and inspect all the works on the spot in collaboration with Gurudwara Shri Hemkund Sahib Management Committee and Eco Development Committee (EDC).

Insurance of horses and mules is mandatory

The role of horses and mules is important during the journey of devotees. Therefore, the Animal Husbandry Department has been instructed to get these animals insured compulsorily, so that proper compensation can be ensured in case of an accident.

  • ADM Vivek Prakash

  • District Tourism Officer Brijendra Pandey

  • Chief Medical Officer (CMO) Abhishek Gupta
