"On the 13th day of the ongoing Amarnathji Yatra today, 18,599 Yatris paid obeisance at the Holy Cave," an official spokesperson said.
So far 1,86,050 pilgrims visited the naturally formed ice-Shivlingam at the cave shrine since the yatra commenced on July 2 from the twin routes, Pahalgam in Anantnag district and Baltal in Ganderbal district.
The spokesperson said the yatra was going on smoothly from both the sides despite brief disruption by intermittent rains over the past two days.
Seven pilgrims have so far died of natural causes, mostly cardiac arrest, during the yatra which is scheduled to end on August 29.
