Congress chief Mallikarjurn Kharge was seen questioning the Maha Kumbh 2025 and the arrangements made by the government for it. He insinuated that the expenses for Maha Kumbh are met by taking away or preventing social welfare of the poor in the country.

“Ganga main dubki lene se gareebi dur hogi kya” (will poverty be eliminated by taking the holy dip in the Ganga river), Kharge asked adding that he does not want to hurt anyone’s religious sentiments but when there are poor children lacking food, when the people are struggling to find employment, our government leaders are competing with each other to take the holy dip in the Ganga. They keep on taking dip after dip until they get a good enough photo for the TV cameras. But they do not care about the real issues plaguing the people.
Speaking in Mhow, Madhya Pradesh, at the Jai Bapu, Jai Samvidhan, Jai Bheem event where Rahul Gandhi was also present, Kharge also added that Modi and Amit Shah have committed so many sins that no amount of holy dips will grant them access to heaven.
