PM Narendra Modi speaks to Swami Avdheshanand Giri over the telephone, requests that Kumbh Mela 2021 in Haridwar should now only be symbolic in the wake of COVID-19 pandemic, now that two shahi snans have concluded.
मैंने प्रार्थना की है कि दो शाही स्नान हो चुके हैं और अब कुंभ को कोरोना के संकट के चलते प्रतीकात्मक ही रखा जाए। इससे इस संकट से लड़ाई को एक ताकत मिलेगी। @AvdheshanandG
