Jammu and Kashmir , July 24, 2025-On the treacherous paths leading to the sacred Amarnath Cave Shrine, the Border Security Force has emerged as a vital support system for pilgrims by providing round-the-clock medical assistance and emergency care.
Deployed along the Baltal and Pahalgam routes, the BSF medical teams are playing a crucial role in ensuring the health and safety of thousands of yatris undertaking the physically demanding Amarnath Yatra 2025. With high altitudes, unpredictable weather, and rugged terrain, the journey poses serious challenges—especially for elderly pilgrims and those with pre-existing health conditions.
From setting up medical camps and providing first aid, to stabilizing patients for further evacuation, the BSF personnel are working tirelessly to support the pilgrimage. In several instances, quick action by BSF doctors and paramedics has saved lives, earning them widespread appreciation from yatris and civil authorities alike.
Beyond healthcare, the BSF continues to assist in crowd management, logistics, and emergency response, reinforcing their commitment to both national security and humanitarian service.
As the Amarnath Yatra continues, the BSF’s presence along the pilgrimage route remains a symbol of dedication, service, and selfless duty to the people.
