MAHAKUMBH NAGAR: The Uttar Pradesh government has stepped up security as it gears up for the ‘Amrit Snan’ on ‘Mauni Amavasya’ on Wednesday, which is expected to draw around 10 crore pilgrims to the Maha Kumbh in just a day.
The Maha Kumbh 2025 has already witnessed over 15 crore pilgrims taking a holy dip in the past 17 days, the state government said on Tuesday.
Security measures have reached unprecedented levels for the day with deployment of personnel at every nook and turn along with installation of AI-powered CCTV cameras and drones keeping eye on the Mela area, spread over several hectares along the Triveni Sangam – the confluence of the Ganga, Yamuna and the mythical Saraswati.
