The Maha Kumbh Mela, which started on January 13, is seeing devotees arrive in large numbers daily to take a holy dip at the Triveni Sangam — the confluence of the Ganga, Yamuna, and the mythical Saraswati rivers.

The Mela will conclude on February 26 with the final ‘Amrit Snan’ on the occasion of Maha Shivratri.
