Young Men Gather to Take Pictures with mala-seller Monalisa

Prayagraj, February 1 – Millions of devotees are visiting the Kumbha Mela daily, many with the intention of taking the holy dip for spiritual purification. However, some seem to have come only for entertainment.

A young woman named Monalisa, known on social media for selling garlands, has become a sensation. Large crowds of young men are gathering just to see her and take selfies. Some even admitted on social media that they attended the Kumbha Mela only to see Monalisa.

Editorial Perspective

The Kumbha Mela is meant for taking the holy dip, seeking blessings from saints, and gaining spiritual benefits. However, due to a lack of Dharma education, today’s youth are engaging in inappropriate activities.
