The administration of Kedarnath Temple has made a significant decision to impose a ban on the use of cell phones within the temple premises. This decision comes in the wake of a recent incident where a couple's proposal at the temple went viral on social media, resulting in considerable public objection. Cell phone use is already prohibited in numerous temples, and following requests for a similar ban in Kedarnath, the Devasthanam Governing Council has responded affirmatively. In order to accommodate this policy change, lockers will be provided for devotees to store their phones during their visit to the temple. The Kedarnath Devasthanam governing body has asked law enforcement to enforce strict action against any individual found violating the new regulation. In a related incident, a couple accused of inappropriate behavior within the temple premises has been reported to the police.
