Pilgrims upset as Shiv ling at Amarnath cave melts completely

The Shiv ling at the Amarnath cave in Jammu and Kashmir has melted completely, leaving pilgrims upset.
This year’s Amarnath Yatra, the annual pilgrimage to the shrine, began on June 28. It will end on August 21. So there’s still a month to go.
In mid-July, as many as 1.51 lakh pilgrims had already visited the shrine, located north-east of Srinagar.
