The largest religious and cultural event, Mahakumbh 2025, witnessed millions of devotees participating in the fourth Amrit Snan on Magh Purnima. The event took place at the sacred Triveni Sangam in Prayagraj, attracting both Indian and foreign devotees.
According to data released by the State Government, a total of 1.90 crore devotees had taken the holy dip by 6 PM on Magh Purnima. The auspicious day holds special significance in the Hindu calendar, leading to long queues forming at the Sangam in the night preceding the event.
The Mahakumbh Mela administration made extensive arrangements to ensure a smooth and organized event. Devotees were urged to quickly proceed to their destinations after the dip, and large Variable Messaging Displays were set up to provide essential instructions for their convenience.
On Magh Purnima, the Kalpavasis took their final dip during Brahma Muhurat before returning to their camps. Over 10 lakh Kalpvasis bid farewell to the Mahakumbh and began their journey home after performing their rituals.
The success of the Magh Purnima Snan festival was attributed to the collaborative efforts of the Mahakumbh Mela administration, local authorities, police, sanitation workers, volunteer organizations, boatmen, and various departments of the central and state governments.
