The Shri Mata Vaishno Devi Shrine Board (SMVDSB) has rejected allegations of negligence in the recent tragedy that left 34 pilgrims dead and about 20 injured on the yatra track, terming the incident an "unprecedented act of nature."

In a statement issued on Friday, the Board expressed "deep sorrow and pain" at the loss of lives but insisted that the disaster was triggered by a sudden cloudburst, causing a massive landslide, which could not have been anticipated.

"The allegations that the yatra was allowed to proceed recklessly are false and baseless," it said.
