India TV NewsMahakumbh 2025: Three streams of the Ganga river were merged at the Sangam area by the Irrigation Department of Uttar Pradesh to create better bathing facilities for millions of devotees expected to attend the Mahakumbh in 2025, officials said today. The department developed a strategic plan to ensure a grand Mahakumbh experience, centralizing bathing facilities for the anticipated 40 crore devotees at one location instead of spreading them across multiple spots. Based on their survey report, three massive dredging machines were deployed to streamline and expand the flow of Ganga in the Sangam area," they said. After relentless efforts, the three streams of Ganga river were successfully unified into a single flow which made the Sangam area more spacious and better organised than ever before, officials said.
