Cracks appear in Badrinath shrine main gate, ASI starts repairs

In a development that has triggered concern, cracks have been reported in ‘Singh Dwar’, the main entrance of Badrinath temple.TOI has exclusively learned that the cracks were first spotted a few weeks ago, although it was not revealed to the public. Initially, there were apprehensions that the cracks may be due to subsidence — Badrinath is just 40km from Joshimath, where large-scale subsidence happened earlier this year. However, ASI officials said they sent a team, which conducted a ground survey and found that the cracks were due to “rain and other environmental factors”.
