Preparations for Janmashtami are underway at Shri Krishna Janmabhoomi in Mathura

Amid coronavirus pandemic, Krishna Janmashtami would be celebrated at Shri Krishna Janmabhoomi in Mathura without devotees.

This will be the first time in the history that no devotees will be present at the temple to witness the birth of Lord Krishna.

However, the preparations are underway by the temple authorities for the live telecast.

The administration imposed a ban on the entry of the devotees at the Shri Krishna Janmabhoomi till August 13 to curb the spread of COVID-19.
