Union Jal Shakti Minister CR Patil on Friday lauded the efforts of Prime Minister Narendra Modi to prioritise the cleaning of Ganga River amid the ongoing Mahakumbh festival.

He said that the number of people coming to Prayagraj also depicts the success of Namami Gange, project initiated by the Prime Minister. Patil said that even foreigners have expressed their faith by taking a dip in Sangam.

The number of people coming here to take a holy dip tells that PM Modi's Namami Gange project has been successful," Patil told ANI.

Praising Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath for ensuring safety of the devotees, the Union Minister said that there was no trace of garbage in the Mahakumbh Mela.

"I would like to praise UP CM Yogi Adityanath and others who worked to ensure safety by maintaining law and order for crores of devotees. There is not a trace of garbage here. Only India could have planned such a huge event this way," Patil added.

Earlier on Friday, Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma took holy dip at Triveni Sangam here and highlighted that the Santan culture has come into prominence.

The six-week festival, which commenced on January 13, will end on February 26.

Devotees continue to arrive in large numbers at Triveni Sangam to take a holy dip.

Adityanath, while addressing the Assembly on Wednesday, highlighted the grandeur of the Mahakumbh in Prayagraj and condemned the spread of misinformation against Sanatan Dharma, Maa Ganga, and India.

Ahead of Maha Shivratri, Uttar Pradesh Chief Secretary Manoj Kumar Singh said, "Mahakumbh is in its final phase, and the main bath is on February 26, on the occasion of Maha Shivratri, and we have come to review the arrangements. On the instructions of UP CM Yogi Adityanath, we will ensure that people do not face any inconvenience, as a large number of people are expected to come on the occasion of Shivratri and the weekend."
