The temple has also asked the people to wear “decent clothes” and desist from setting up tents or camps in the temple precincts.
“In the past, some pilgrims were making videos and reels inside the temple in an indecent manner as well as clicking pictures…It will be implemented strictly, that is why warning boards have also been installed at Kedarnath,” reported news agency ANI quoting Badrinath-Kedarnath Temple Committee president Ajendra Ajay.
