Despite the continuing threat from the Covid-19 pandemic, preparations for the Kumbh Mela, one of the largest religious gatherings in the world, are ongoing in the city of Haridwar. The central and state governments estimate up to 10 lakh people will visit the Kumbh a day, with the number climbing up to 50 lakh on the days of the shahi snaan, or royal bath. According to an officer of the Haridwar administration, 1.8 crore took a dip in the Ganga on the shahi snaan during the festival of Baisakhi at Haridwar Kumbh in 2010.
