Basant Panchami Amrit Snan: The third and last 'Amrit Snan' (holy bath) of the Mahakumbh is taking place today on the auspicious occasion of Basant Panchami, drawing millions of devotees to the Sangam for a sacred dip. The snan began at 4 am, and as of now, 1.65 crore devotees have bathed at the confluence of three rivers, Ganga, Yamuna and Saraswati. The saints of the Mahanirvani Akhara were the first to take part in the holy dip, followed by other akharas. It is believed that taking the Amrit Snan on Basant Panchami grants salvation. https://ift.tt/E6FYghV
