Bhubaneswar: Odisha Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi on Sunday described the Maha Kumbh as a sacred confluence of faith, tradition, and divinity after taking a holy dip at the Triveni Sangam in Prayagraj.

Accompanied by his wife, Puri MP Sambit Patra, and Odisha’s Advocate General Pitambar Acharya, the Chief Minister participated in the spiritual gathering and performed rituals at the revered confluence of the Ganga, Yamuna, and the mythical Saraswati rivers.
