Covid-19 to restrict pilgrimage at UP's only Basilica from 4 lakh devotees to 100

Another important event held on the annual pilgrimage is a procession in which relics, including splinters of what is believed to be the Holy Cross on which Christ was crucified 2,000 years ago, are carried from the Basilica to the Queen's palace, now St. Charles Inter College. It is located around 500 yards from each other.
