Terming the remarks as ‘unfortunate’, VHP media in-charge Sharad Sharma said, “Jaya Bachchan should be arrested for spreading sensation by giving false and untrue statements.” He added, “Maha Kumbh is the backbone of faith and devotion where one attains Dharma, Karma, and Moksha.

The Opposition had also created a major ruckus at the Parliament on Monday asking the government to release the names of those who lost their lives in the tragic incident. Jaya Bachchan also dismissed the Uttar Pradesh government’s claims number of devotees who participated in Mahakumbh Mela 2025. She asked how a massive crowd of devotees could be in one place at one time. The Maha Kumbh which started on January 13 will go on till February 26.

What Jaya Bachchan said

“Where is the water most contaminated at the moment? It’s in Prayagraj’s Maha Kumbh. Bodies have been thrown into the river. Due to this, the water has been contaminated, Jaya Bachchan claimed while speaking to reporters on Monday.

Observing that real issues at the Maha Kumbh were neglected, the Rajya Sabha MP noted that no arrangements were made for the common people, who are visiting Maha Kumbh for the mega event. “They are lying that crores of people have visited the Maha Kumbh. How a large number of people can gather in that place at any given point?” she also asked for data from state government on devotee turnout at the Maha Kumbh.
