Recent fire locals witnessed with horror that Shirine Board accorded its main thrust to ensure yatra route safe rest other aspects were thrown to winds. It is alleged which needs probe to pin and fix responsibility, that Animals did try to save themselves but iron fencing , no routes to escape got them charred to gruesome death.Some big wild animals managed to escape and caused loss in the villages near by. Even those Animals with burn injuries calling for the aid were not attended to. Mata Vaishno Devi is a strictly vegetarian Goddess, it is painful and sacrilegious find that the Shrine Board authorities made to get charred of Animals in Her abode. Animals cannot speak, protest or call for punitive action against the perpetuators of cruelty against them. These are very serious charges levelled by the Animal lovers which need scrutiny .Shrine boards stoic silence in these charges is intriguing one.
