On his way back from the site, the Chief Minister interacted with thousands of devotees, checking on their well-being as he approached barricades.
Devotees greeted him enthusiastically with chants of ‘Har Har Mahadev’, ‘Jai Shri Ram’, and ‘Jai Ganga Maiya’, and expressed gratitude for the excellent facilities provided by the government during the Maha Kumbh.
It is important to note that CM Yogi had earlier expressed his sorrow over the tragic incident during Mauni Amavasya, becoming visibly emotional as he spoke about the incident.
