The Maha Kumbh Mela 2025 is underway, and it has already seen over 7 crore people take a dip in the sacred Sangam. The festival, which is one of the largest religious gatherings in the world, started five days ago. The first Amrit bath has already taken place, with more than three and a half crore people participating in this important ritual.
There are six baths in total during the Maha Kumbh, and three of them are Amrit baths, which are considered the most significant. These baths are moments when devotees gather to cleanse themselves and seek blessings.
In addition to the millions of devotees, Congress leaders Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi are expected to visit the Maha Kumbh. After taking a holy dip, the two will meet with Shankaracharya and other saints to seek their blessings.
