Shiv Sena demands free registration of Shri Amarnath Yatra, wrote a memorandum with blood.
Sought time to meet the Lieutenant Governor
Jammu: - Shiv Sena (UBT) Jammu and Kashmir unit leaders today wrote a memorandum with their blood to the Lieutenant Governor of Jammu and Kashmir and requested for time to meet , demanding free registration for the annual Shri Amarnath Yatra 2024, which is scheduled to continue from June 29 to August 19.

He said that before the reorganization of Jammu and Kashmir, i.e. before 2019, the registration fee was just Rs 50/- per passenger.

Along with the memorandum, the Shiv Sainiks also wrote a request letter to meet the Lieutenant Governor of Jammu and Kashmir with their blood.
He said that despite making dozens of requests before th
