Importance of Basant Panchami Bath
The festival of Basant Panchami is dedicated to Goddess Saraswati, the goddess of learning and knowledge. Taking bath in the ganges on this day has special significance. The bath of Basant Panchami at Sangam in Prayagraj is considered to be the biggest religious event. This is one of the main baths of the Magh Mela. Every year on Basant Panchami, lakhs of devotees come to bathe in the Sangam. This time too, keeping in mind the possibility of a huge crowd, the administration has made special arrangements for police, water police, divers and health services.
