Over 3.5 lakh people have registered so far since May 7 for the annual Amarnath Yatra this year through various online facilities, banks and post offices, Shri Amarnathji Shrine Board CEO Navin K Choudhary said here.
At a review meeting yesterday, SASB - which is chaired by Jammu and Kashmir Governor N N Vohra, decided to release an additional quota for online registration through JK Bank website.
"The move was taken after it was observed that online registration has been most favoured and found convenient by the pilgrims," an official spokesman said.
The annual pilgrimage to Amarnath shrine cave is scheduled to commence from June 25.
