Breaking: PM Modi Hails Maha Kumbh's Success, Compares It to Historic Milestones in India's Journey

In his Lok Sabha speech, Prime Minister Narendra Modi praised the successful organization of the Maha Kumbh, acknowledging the contributions of various individuals, the government, and society at large. He thanked the people of Uttar Pradesh, especially the residents of Prayagraj, and expressed his gratitude towards the pilgrims who participated in the event. Modi compared the efforts behind the Maha Kumbh to the legendary story of Bhagirath, who brought the Ganges to the Earth. He emphasized that the event was inspired by the collective dedication and devotion of the public. The Prime Minister also drew parallels between the Maha Kumbh and significant moments in India’s history that have shaped the nation, such as the Bhakti movement, Swami Vivekananda's speech in Chicago, the 1857 revolt, and the independence movement led by leaders like Bhagat Singh, Subhas Chandra Bose, and Mahatma Gandhi. Modi concluded by calling the Prayagraj Maha Kumbh a moment of national pride.
