CNN Central News & Network–ITDC India Epress/ITDC News Bhopal: The ongoing Maha Kumbh in Prayagraj has witnessed an unprecedented surge in devotees as the sacred ‘Amrit Snan’ draws near. With millions expected to take the holy dip, the Uttar Pradesh government has declared a holiday for government offices in Prayagraj to manage the overwhelming crowd. This move aims to facilitate smooth crowd control and ensure the safety of pilgrims participating in the world’s largest religious gathering.
Maha Kumbh, celebrated every 12 years, is considered a spiritually significant event where devotees believe a dip in the Ganges washes away sins and grants salvation. This year’s ‘Amrit Snan’ has attracted saints, seers, and pilgrims from across the globe, creating an atmosphere of deep devotion and faith. Authorities have also strengthened security measures, deploying additional personnel and arranging medical aid facilities to handle emergencies.
With the festival reaching its peak, the administration continues to urge visitors to follow safety protocols and cooperate with officials for a smooth and peaceful experience. As the grand spiritual congregation unfolds, Prayagraj remains the focal point of devotion, faith, and cultural unity.
