Amarnath Yatra 2026: CHC-Approved Doctors and Hospitals in Odisha
Planning to embark on the spiritual journey to Shri Amarnathji from Odisha? Then your first important step is to obtain a Compulsory Health Certificate (CHC). This mandatory certificate ensures that you are medically fit for the high-altitude yatra and is required for registration.
The Department of Health & Family Welfare, Odisha, has nominated doctors across District Headquarters Hospitals (DHHs), Sub-Divisional Hospitals (SDHs), and major medical facilities to issue this certificate in the official format approved by the Shri Amarnathji Shrine Board (SASB).
