Pakistan Hindus Leaving for Chardhams
On last 24th of July a group of devotees from Pakistan reached Haridwar. On Monday the Commando too had organized a tour of the city. On Wednesday morning pak devotees started off for Chardham yatra from Shadani darbar. The devotees called out in honor of Shri Badri Vishal. Saint Yudhisthir Lal waved a green flag to signal the start of the Yatra.
He told that often Hindu pilgrims from Pakistan visit Shadani Darbar to take part in its various programs. But this is the first time that they got the scope to set out on a Chardham Yatra. Indian government has allowed them permit to go on Chardham Yatra for the first time. Enthusiastic pilgrims think themselves lucky to be given such a privilege. Ignoring the challenges of the weather they declared that they have full trust in God and thus the belief that they’ll be able to visit all the four Dhams. In this group of Yatris to Chardham, personalities like group leader Shankar Lal, Sachidanand, Kailash Jot, Darshan Lal, Parshuram, Jiban Das, Anil Kumar, Madan Lal, Deenaram, Mahesh Kumar, Mansaram, Tara Chand, Sarvanand, Vijay Kumar, Anup Kumar, Hatam das, Jay Bai, Dipa Bai, Priyanka, Dena Bai, Daya, Sunil Kumar, Tirth Das, Neel etc were included.
10 Days Chardham Yatra Package Tour
It will be a 10 days long tour of the Chardhams for the devotees coming from Pakistan. Pilgrims in this group will first and foremost pay a visit to the shrine of Shri Badrivishal followed by Kedarnath shrine, Gangotri shrine and Yamunotri shrine.

Beware of Fake Char Dham & Kedarnath Helicopter Booking Websites
Fake websites, WhatsApp accounts and advertisements may impersonate genuine travel companies or helicopter operators. Always verify before paying.
Cyber fraudsters are creating fake websites, social-media pages, WhatsApp accounts and advertisements offering Kedarnath helicopter tickets and Char Dham Yatra by helicopter at unusually low prices.
Some fake websites may even copy the name, logo, photos or booking information of genuine travel companies or helicopter operators.
Before you make any payment, follow these safety checks:
Check the website URL carefully
Make sure you are booking from the genuine website and not from a similar-looking or misspelled domain.
Verify the travel company
Check whether the operator is registered/accredited with the relevant tourism authority and whether its company name, address and contact details are consistent across its website and official listings.
Never trust a "too-good-to-be-true" price
An unusually low helicopter fare, urgent "last seat" offer or pressure to pay immediately should be treated as a warning sign.
Verify the payment details before transferring money
The account holder/company name should match the booking entity. Do not transfer money to an unrelated individual, personal account or an account name that you cannot independently verify.
Be careful with QR codes and WhatsApp payment requests
A QR code is not proof that a payment request is genuine. Before scanning or paying, independently verify the recipient's name, account details and booking with the company.
Prefer secure payment methods
Where available, use the company's official payment gateway or a credit card. If you believe you have been defrauded, contact your bank/card issuer immediately and report the incident to the cybercrime authorities.
Verify with us before paying if you have any doubt
If someone contacts you claiming to represent Chardham Tour, especially through WhatsApp, Facebook, Instagram, Google Ads or another website, verify the booking and payment details with our official support team before transferring money.
Official Government Warning
The Indian Cyber Crime Coordination Centre (I4C), under the Ministry of Home Affairs, has warned pilgrims about fake online booking websites and advertisements offering Kedarnath and Char Dham helicopter bookings. The government advises travellers to verify websites before making payments and to cross-check bookings through official government portals or trusted travel agencies.
If You Have Already Paid and Suspect Fraud
Act immediately.
- Contact your bank or payment provider.
- Call 1930 — National Cyber Crime Helpline.
- Report the incident at the National Cyber Crime Reporting Portal.
- Keep your payment receipt, transaction ID, phone numbers, WhatsApp messages, website URL and screenshots as evidence.
