In one week from now, the largest religious festival ever happened on this earth will begin in Prayagraj.
The Ganga, Yamuna, Saraswati Sangam will witness an unprecedented show of devotion, faith, and humanity.
A thread on what it means.
First the context!
Mahakumbh is organized every 12 years at 4 places ~ Prayagraj, Ujjain, Nashik & Haridwar.
Why 4 places? It is because during Samudra Manthan, the Amrit drops from the Kumbh fell in these 4 locations.
Why 12 years? Because Jupiter takes 12 years to orbit around the Sun.
Prayagraj Kumbh is organized when Jupiter is in Taurus, the Sun, Moon are in Capricorn.

A year that was 2024!
Some big events, major achievements and initiatives that have potential to change the socio-economic conditions of Uttar Pradesh forever.
Here is a thread on flashback 2024. Read on:
The year started on a truly auspicious note with the Pran Pratishtha of Shri Ram Lalla Sarkar in Ayodhya.
A civilizational wound was finally healed ~ a 500 years wait of Hindu Samaj finally over. Bharat celebrated the day like an early Deepawali festival and entire Ayodhya was lit with millions of Diyas on 22 January 2024.
Over 5 lakh people had Darshan of Shri Ram Lalla on the very first day of the Ram Mandir opening. Since then, more than 100 million devotees have visited Ayodhya.
Ram Mandir has started changing the economic face of Ayodhya and its people as well. The city got a swanky railway station, an international airport and many other infrastructure projects.
As PM Modi inaugurates Kushinagar International Airport today, let’s see how Yogi Sarkar has transformed UP into ‘Airport Pradesh’ in last 4.5 years:
In 2016, UP had 2 functional airports ~ Lucknow & Varanasi. Today, it has 9 functional airports ~ 3 international & 6 domestic.
Prayagraj Airport:
Prayagraj Airport’s new terminal was completed & inaugurated in 2019. Today, there are 11 daily flights from this airport. Recently, it achieved the landmark of 12000 flights & 1 million passengers served since the launch of new terminal.

How Yogi Adityanath established rule of law in Uttar Pradesh in last 4 years?
Those who grew up in 90s era will recall the Gundaraj which prevailed then:
-Criminals ran the show
-Mafia became lawmakers
-Rioters roamed free
-Police officers hounded for action on criminals
Every tender, contract, govt job was virtually decided by Crime syndicate.
Contrast this with the situation today:
-Criminals cancelling bail/ parole
-Mafias crossing over to other states
-Rioters offering to pay fine for loss
-Gundas surrendering to be inside jails

Thread on Covid management by UP under Yogi Adityanath!
For the perspective, UP has a population of more than 230 millions, double that of Maharashtra - second most populous state & equivalent to Brazil as a country - sixth most populous country in the world.
#UPFightsCorona
Many people thought (actually wished) that UP will see millions of deaths & won't be able to manage to control the pandemic.
Their hate for Yogi is so strong that they didn't miss any opportunity to malign state govt.
All those are going to be disappointed after reading this.
