UP State Government’s ‘Digital Khoya-Paya Kendra’ (Lost and Found Centre) plays an important role

More than 66 crore devotees took a holy dip in this historic religious event, which was held after 144 years. The Kumbha Mela administration was able to reunite 54,357 devotees with their families, who had got lost during this grand event.

Editorial Perspective

Congratulations to the Yogi Adityanath Government for this achievement. Why are those who used to attack the Uttar Pradesh Government saying, ‘The Ganga was unclean’, ‘Stampedes happened at the Maha Kumbha’ etc., not saying anything about this achievement ?
