It was very hard to get the information like how many pilgrims were stranded in the valley & their details to get in touch with their families. So when the Yatra has been started in 2014, Uttarakhand govt. made the registration for Char Dham Yatra mandatory to trek all the movement and information about the pilgrimage for data, security & for mitigation purpose. So, if you are planning to visit any temple of char dham circuit, make sure to do Char dham registration before starting your Yatra.
