The Morning Standard
|January 15, 2025

Shahi Snans are the red-letter days on the Kumbh timetable, and for the devout, who have come from far and wide to take a dip in the Sangam on the occasion of the first Shahi Snan of Makar Sankranti, there is a slight interruption in programme when the Naga sadhus, their lithe bodies resplendent with ash and health, break into a run for the river.
