Thousands of devotees gathered at the confluence of the Ganga, Yamuna, and Saraswati on Paush Purnima for the first Snan Parv of Maha Kumbh 2025, seeking spiritual merit.
From the early hours of the morning, the banks of the Sangam were alive with fervent chants of “Har Har Gange” and “Jai Shri Ram.” Devotees, including Kalpavasis, arrived well before dawn, despite the cold weather.
As a result, they demonstrated unwavering devotion and resilience in their quest for spiritual merit. Many carried their belongings on their heads as they made their way to the ghats, undeterred by the chill or the weight of their possessions.
Among the most popular bathing spots were Sangam Nose, Airavat Ghat, and VIP Ghat, where devotees performed the sacred ritual with deep reverence.
One of the most striking features of this year’s Maha Kumbh was the enthusiasm of the youth, who actively participated in the event. From children to the elderly, all took part in the ‘Sangam Snan and Daan’ (charity), performing puja and giving offerings at the holy site.
The vibrant atmosphere, filled with spiritual energy, was widely captured by the youth, who shared photos and videos on social media. These posts further amplified the excitement surrounding the event, reflecting a renewed interest in Sanatan culture and spirituality.
In line with the directives from Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, authorities implemented exceptional security arrangements for the event. The Command Center monitored the fairground to ensure safety and smooth crowd flow. Senior officials, including the DIG and SSP, oversaw operations, while additional police forces managed the crowds effectively.
The first Snan Parv of Mahakumbh 2025 turned into a memorable and spiritually uplifting experience for all who attended. With devotion in the air and a sense of pride in their cultural heritage, devotees, especially the younger generation, are embracing the sacred rituals of the Kumbh Mela in a way that reflects both tradition and modernity.
