Magh Mela sees start of five-day Panchkosi Parikrama in Prayagraj

The Panchkosi Parikrama, a significant tradition of Prayagraj, has begun at the Magh Mela. This five-day pilgrimage started with Ganga Puja at the Sangam. The yatra covers sacred sites within the traditional geographical expanse of Prayagraj. Performing this Parikrama is considered essential for devotees. The tradition was revived in 2019 after being discontinued for centuries.
