New Delhi, Feb 4 (IANS) Prime Minister Narendra Modi is all set to visit the Mahakumbh Mela in Prayagraj on Wednesday to take a holy dip in the Triveni Sangam.
PM Modi is expected to arrive in Prayagraj at around 11 a.m. where he will be given a grand welcome. Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath and Deputy CMs Keshav Prasad Maurya as well as Brajesh Pathak are likely to accompany the Prime Minister during his visit to the Sangam.
PM Modi will take a holy dip at the Sangam, the confluence of three rivers, Ganga Yamuna and Saraswati and will offer prayers to Maa Ganga.

Defence Minister Rajnath Singh also took a holy dip in the Sangam.
Besides, Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar also visited Prayagraj recently and took a holy dip. He praised the administration over the arrangements.
