On the sacred occasion of Basant Panchami, saints, and spiritual leaders not only took a holy dip in the Triveni Sangam but also strongly countered critics of Maha Kumbh.
They lauded the exceptional arrangements made by Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath while condemning opposition remarks.
Jagatguru Mahamandaleshwar Santosh Das Satua Baba Maharaj of Panch Nirmohi Ani Akhara addressed critics directly, stating, “To those questioning the saints and Maha Kumbh, I have a message—(SP chief) Akhilesh Yadav ji, you have never followed or respected Sanatan Dharma. Do not attempt to benefit from it now. We remember how, during your tenure, Sanatanis were targeted. Stop spreading rumours for political gain. We are Sanatanis, and won’t allow people like you to mislead others.”
Swami Avdheshanand Giri emphasized India’s spiritual strength, asserting, “At this sacred gathering, we witness India’s unity—people of diverse ideologies and faiths coming together by the Ganga’s banks. While the world faces fear and turmoil, India shines with peace and joy. Amid global conflicts, India stands as a beacon of wisdom. Through our spiritual values, yoga, and Ayurveda, we are ready to lead the world. The global community looks to India for solutions, and I express my gratitude to Chief Minister Yogi Ji for ensuring exceptional arrangements for this grand event.”
Chinmayanand Bapu also praised the efforts of the administration, remarking, “Today is an auspicious occasion, as all Akharas and Mahamandaleshwars proceed towards Sangam. Basant Panchami holds special significance for students, as taking a holy dip in the Sangam is likely to bring success. I extend my appreciation to the administration for their outstanding arrangements. The atmosphere today is calm and well-managed.”
With strong support from saints and spiritual leaders, Maha Kumbh continues to reaffirm its significance as a symbol of faith, unity, and tradition.
