Your visit to a holy place of Pilgrimage
India is a land of holy places and there is no dearth of Pilgrims in this country. Our biggest centers of pilgrimage are Badri Nath, Puri, Rameshwaram, and Allahabad on the occasion of Kumbh, Hardwar, Kurukshetra and Garhmukteshwar. Perhaps the largest number of people gathers at Allahabad and Garhmukgteshwar. I also visited Garhmukteshwar on Kartik Purnima and had an experience of this fair suggested that we should leave by the evening train, reach the holy place in the early hours of the morning and take our bar in the holy river. It was more with the feelings of adventure than religious devotion that we left for our destination.
There was a very heavy rush in the train. The compartments were full of suffocation. Somehow, we were able to get a few inches of accommodation to stand. I do not want to say anything about the difficulties of the way since a pilgrim is not supposed to make an account of all these things
We reached the bank of the holy river early in the morning. There was a great rush of people on both banks of the river. A large number of police men and volunteers were standing on duty to keep a watch, as pick pockets are busy in their work on an occasion like this. Water was deep at the bank. So ropes had been hung on wooden poles for the facility of bathers. Some boats were standing ready for help in case of trouble. The more religious minded thought that they were making their way to heaven clear by taking a dip in the holy water. Somebody said, :Holy Ganga, wash off my sins” Somebody said, Victory to thee, Holy mother” All sorts of poetic compliments were being paid to the holy river for her being capable of removing people’s difficulties.

Explanation:
I visited Allahabad during the Kumbh Mela. Kumbh Mela is held at four places in India including Allahabad. There was huge crowd. People of religious faith from different parts of the country had gathered there to have a dip in the Ganga. It is believed that having a dip in Ganga during the time washes away all sins. Big tents were erected for the accommodation of the devotees. In the morning the scene appears very pious. People reciting religious verses were busy performing many rituals. There appeared a sea of humans, as lakhs of people gathered there at a time. I along with my uncle also took a bath in the holy Ganga and offered prayer. The religiosity of the people was worth seeing.
