The SASB has also kept the option for revalidation of the permit for Yatra 2022. For this, the yatris must keep the yatra permit form intact, which they can get revalidated by visiting same bank branch when the registration opens for Yatra 2022.

The annual pilgrimage to Amarnath this year was cancelled due to Covid-19 pandemic, but the shrine board carried out all the traditional religious rituals at cave shrine.

The SASB had also made arrangements for the live telecast of morning and evening Aarti on TV channels and social media in addition to facilitating Virtual Pooja, Hawan, and Online Prasad booking. Around 7 to 8 million devotees performed the free virtual darshan on Jio TV platform through live streaming on Shri Amarnathji Channel.
