Early Times Report
REASI, Aug 12: The sacred Kounsar Nag Yatra 2025 concluded on a highly successful note, marked by devotion, discipline and seamless coordination among all stakeholders.
The pilgrimage route from Reasi to Gorvan and up to Kounsar Gali falls under the jurisdiction of District Reasi, while the stretch from Kounsar Gali to Kounsar Lake lies in the jurisdiction of District Kulgam.
The yatra commenced from Shiv Mandir, Reasi on 7 August 2025, with pilgrims travelling 99 km by road to Sungri Camp, where they halted for the night. On the second day, devotees proceeded 26 km by road to Sarsote Camp and then 11 km on foot to Sari Camp, where they stayed overnight.
On the third day, yatris embarked early from Sari Camp on a 17 km trek to the sacred Kounsar Nag Lake. After offering prayers and receiving blessings at the holy site, they returned on foot to Sari Camp for another night halt.
The return journey began on the fourth day with an 11 km trek back to Sarsote Camp, followed by a 125 km road journey to Reasi, thus completing the four-day pilgrimage.
Pilgrims from across the district expressed deep gratitude for the flawless arrangements, robust safety measures and warm ospitality extended to them throughout the journey.
This year's yatra stood as a testament to exceptional teamwork and coordination, with notable contributions from the Reasi Administration, Reasi Police, Indian Army, IRP-1st Battalion, Kulgam Police, CRPF, Village Defence Guards (VGDs), CISF, SDRF and numerous other civil and security agencies.
Despite the unpredictable Himalayan weather and the challenging terrain, the journey was completed safely and smoothly. The combined commitment of security forces, administrative teams and dedicated volunteers ensured that yatris experienced not only spiritual fulfillment but also a comfortable and secure pilgrimage.
With the blessings of the holy lake, the Kounsar Nag Yatra 2025 will be remembered for its flawless management, deep devotion, and spirit of service demonstrated by all those involved.
