The number of devotees reaching the Mahakumbh of Prayagraj has increased to more than thirteen and a half crores. Mouni is Amavasya two days later. More than nine crore devotees are expected to arrive at Mahakumbh on 29 January. The government has made arrangements according to 12 crore devotees.
On the other hand, Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge questioned everyone’s faith and reverence. Kharge asked if poverty would be removed by taking a dip in Mahakumbh? He alleged that the poor are being looted in the name of religion. Kharge said that no matter how much Amit Shah takes a dip, he will not be good.
Kharge was addressing a rally in Mhow, the birthplace of Dr. BR Ambedkar in Madhya Pradesh. At that time, Rahul Gandhi was sitting on the stage. Kharge said that nowadays there is a competition going on in BJP leaders to take a dip in the confluence. BJP leaders are running towards Prayagraj to take photographs.
Mallikarjun Kharge has asked if bathing in Kumbh will remove poverty? To know the answer, they should go to Mahakumbh once. The answer will give them the tea person, who is earning 20 to 22 thousand rupees every day in Mahakumbh. This will answer this in Mahakumbh, carts, khomche people, shops, stay, living food.
As far as far -reaching thinking is concerned, I asked Yogi Adityanath that what would be the benefit of spending crores of rupees on Mahakumbh? Yogi had told that due to Mahakumbh, Uttar Pradesh will get an additional business of two lakh crore rupees.
The third thing is that Kharge has hurt the sentiments of Hindu society by questioning the bathing of Sangam. I have seen the flood of faith in Mahakumbh. There is no difference between the rich poor there. There is neither a caste of anyone, nor religion. Most of the people who earn virtue by taking a dip in the confluence come from ordinary families. Among them are poor, laborers, doctors, also engineers.
The fourth thing is that Kharge questioned Sanatan and gave the BJP leaders an opportunity to ask whether he would ever ask Muslims a similar question whether poverty is removed by traveling to Haj.
Kharge is a senior leader. Instead of questioning the faith and reverence of those who take a dip in the confluence, they should go to the Mahakumbh themselves and see how efficiently the arrangement of coming for millions of people every day, living, cleaning, bathing and meditation. Has been done
The Mahakumbh, which is being praised all over the world, should see the enthusiasm and enthusiasm once before questioning it. Instead of questioning the bath of Sangam, Kharge ji should also take a dip in the confluence. Mauni will be a good day for Amavasya for this. ,Rajat Sharma,
