Reliability Tier
1
Tier 1: a formal response to a Right to Information application, obtained from the Shri Mata Vaishno Devi Shrine Board by a Jammu-based activist under India's Right to Information Act and carried directly by the Press Trust of India, India's national wire service. A compelled legal disclosure from the statutory body that runs the shrine, not a voluntary announcement or a secondhand estimate: donation figures by financial year from 2020-21 through 2024-25 (the last measured only through January 2025), plus gold and silver offering weights over the same run of years.
