ALLAHABAD, India: India’s Kumbh Mela religious megafestival wraps up Monday with some 10 million pilgrims expected to take a final holy plunge, taking the final tally toward 250 million, officials said.
“We expect at least 10 million today because it is both the last day and Mahashivratri,” one of the biggest Hindu holy days, government official Prabhat Shukla said.
“Around 220 million people have visited the Kumbh as per our last calculations. The final tally will only be updated after the end of the festival but it could be around 250 million,” Shukla added.
