Devotees throng Sangam on Makar Sankranti
Devotees took a dip of salvation at the holy confluence of Ganga, Yamuna, and the invisible Saraswati keeping in mind the Covid-19 protocols of social distancing.
Despite the fog and cold, people came in large numbers to take a dip of faith.
According to beliefs, from today onwards, the sun is Uttarayan from Dakshinayan, and taking a bath in the Sangam is beneficial in many ways.
