Devotees from around the world gather at the Maha Kumbh Mela in Prayagraj, sharing experiences of spirituality and peace. The event has drawn praise for its organisation, warmth, and transformative energy.

The fire was reported in Sector-22 of the Maha Kumbh district near Chatnag Ghat. The devotees are reported safe and evacuated from the site of the fire.

Authorities worked in close coordination with police forces from these districts to regulate the movement of devotees, particularly around the heavily congested tent city and parking areas within 5 kilometers of the mela zone.
