A large ‘Om’ installation is set up near the temple, adding to the spiritual ambience ahead of the grand reopening ceremony

Workers decorate the Kedarnath Temple with vibrant floral garlands, giving the shrine a festive and divine look 

The doors will open in morning tomorrow officially beginning the pilgrimage season after six months of winter closure

Devotees carry the sacred “Panchmukhi Doli” of Lord Kedarnath as part of the Char Dham Yatra procession, marking the ceremonial journey to the temple

The procession signifies the return of the deity from Ukhimath to Kedarnath, an important ritual before the temple doors are opened to the public

Security personnel, including the Anti Terrorist Squad (ATS), pose ahead of the ceremony, ensuring safety arrangements for the large number of expected pilgrims.
