A 72-hour strike in Katra initiated by pony wallas, shopkeepers, and business owners begins on Wednesday to protest a proposed ropeway project. The Shri Mata Vaishno Devi Sangarsh Samiti organized the bandh to oppose the Rs 250-crore ropeway which aims to assist senior citizens and others in accessing the temple.
