The ongoing Amarnath yatra was suspended temporarily on Tuesday after heavy rains rendered the twin mountain tracks to the cave shrine in South Kashmir unsafe, official sources said.

The yatra was suspended temporarily as a precautionary measure from both the routes - the traditional 45-km Pahalgam track in Anantnag district and the shortest 16-km Baltal route in Ganderbal district - following heavy rains since this morning, the sources said.
