“We’ve urged them not to fall prey to them. Bookings can be made only on our official website or on phone application, nowhere else,” said Bharti.

“The issue is being investigated, while pilgrims are being sensitised not to fall into the trap of such websites. For the bookings, no travel agent has been given the authority,” he added.
