Prime Minister Narendra Modi visited the Maha Kumbh Mela in Prayagraj today, taking a sacred dip at the confluence of the Ganga, Yamuna, and the mythical Saraswati at the Sangam. Accompanied by Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, he also enjoyed a boat ride from Arail Ghat to Triveni Sangam.
Sharing his experience on X, PM Modi wrote, “Blessed to be at the Maha Kumbh in Prayagraj. The Snan at the Sangam is a moment of divine connection, and like the crores of others who have taken part in it, I was also filled with a spirit of devotion. May Maa Ganga bless all with peace, wisdom, good health, and harmony.”
The Maha Kumbh Mela 2025, which began on January 13, is the largest spiritual and cultural gathering in the world, drawing millions of devotees from across the globe. The event will continue until Mahashivratri on February 26. Prominent political figures like Union Home Minister Amit Shah and Defence Minister Rajnath Singh have visited the festival, while international personalities, including Laurene Powell Jobs (former wife of Apple co-founder Steve Jobs), Coldplay’s Chris Martin, and Hollywood actor Dakota Johnson, have also attended.
