With the Basant Panchami bathing festival scheduled for Monday, a massive influx of devotees and tourists is gathering on the sacred banks of Triveni in Prayagraj for the Maha Kumbh.
Considering the huge gathering, the Uttar Pradesh State Road Transport Corporation (UPSRTC) has arranged a dedicated shuttle and reserved bus fleet to ensure the devotees’ safe and orderly return.
Notably, by the evening of February 2, approximately 35 crore people had taken a holy dip in Triveni. The Yogi government remains fully committed to managing their seamless return.
