On the Mahakumbh stampede, he expressed condolences with all those who were affected by the stampede on January 29, as well as the devotees who lost their lives in accidents while returning after taking a dip. “We pay tribute to them, and our thoughts are with their families. The government stands with them. However, it is not appropriate to politicise this incident,” he said.
In the UP assembly, CM Yogi Adityanath said while all are participating in the discussion, at that time more than 56.25 crore devotees have already taken their holy dip in Prayagraj. “When we make any baseless allegations or snow fake videos against Sanatan Dharma, Maa Ganga, India or the Maha Kumbh... it is like playing with the faith of these 56 crore people,” he said.
Yogi Aditynath said that the Mahakumbh event is not organised by any particular party or organisation and the world has participated in this event and have taken it to new heights of success, ignoring all the false campaigns.
“Seven days of the Maha Kumbh are left, and as per the figures, more than 56 crore devotees have taken a holy dip till this afternoon... Our sympathies are with all those who were victims of the stampede on 29 January... and those who lost their lives in road accidents while travelling for Kumbh. Our condolences are with the family members, the government stands with them, the government will help them in every possible way but how appropriate is it to politicise this,” he said.
