Parayagraj in Uttar Pradesh is preparing for the upcoming Maha Kumbh Fair, which will run from January 13 to February 26, 2025.
Many saints and sages from India are moving towards the Prayagraj. One of them is Chotu Baba alias Gangapuri Maharaj. His height is just 3 feet and 8 inches. Chotu baba is from Kamakhya Peeth in Assam.
Speaking to ANI, Baba said, “This is Milan Mela. Soul to soul should be connected and that’s why I’m here.”
He further said that, “I am 3 feet 8 inches. I am 57 years old. I am very happy to come here. You people are also here I am happy in that also.”
Chotu Baba alias Gangapuri Maharaj has become the Centre of attraction due to his height. Not only this, but the other thing that made him unique is that he didn’t take a bath for 32 years. He gave a reason for not taking a bath for the last 32 years by saying, “I do not take a bath because I have a wish which has not been fulfilled in the last 32 years. I will not take a bath in the Ganga.”
During every Maha Kumbh fair lakhs of devotees come. To make this fair a successful one, the administration has taken several steps. From the facility of trains to security arrangements the Sangam city is getting ready for this fair.
