PM Narendra Modi Takes Holy Dip at Maha Kumbh 2025 in Prayagraj

Prime Minister Narendra Modi took a sacred dip at the Sangam in Prayagraj on Wednesday morning, where the Maha Kumbh is being held. Wearing a saffron jacket and blue track pants, and holding rudraksha beads, he chanted prayers while immersing himself in the confluence of the Ganga, Yamuna, and the mythical Saraswati.

Boat Tour with Yogi Adityanath

Before taking the holy dip, PM Narendra Modi embarked on a boat tour of the Sangam alongside Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath. His visit highlighted the cultural and spiritual significance of the Maha Kumbh, which attracts millions of devotees from around the world.

A Tragic Incident Casts a Shadow

This year’s Maha Kumbh witnessed an unfortunate tragedy just a week before PM Modi’s visit. A stampede claimed the lives of 30 devotees, underscoring the massive turnout and crowd management challenges at the event. Despite the tragedy, the faith and devotion of attendees remain unwavering.

Political Significance Amid Elections

PM Narendra Modi’s visit comes at a crucial time as Delhi prepares for its Assembly elections. His presence at the Maha Kumbh is seen as a significant political move, especially after Home Minister Amit Shah and his family also took a holy dip at the Kumbh just days before the stampede.

Massive Crowds Gather to Witness the PM

Thousands of devotees gathered along the riverbank, eager to catch a glimpse of the Prime Minister. His visit to the Maha Kumbh reaffirms the deep-rooted spiritual and cultural traditions of India.
