Pilgrim Gives Birth at Magh Mela

Pilgrim Gives Birth at Magh Mela

A woman named Ragini from Madhya Pradesh was visiting Prayagraj with her husband to take a holy bath at the Sangam during the Magh Mela.

Suddenly, she went into labor and was taken to Ganga Hospital within the fair area.

She gave birth to a healthy baby girl, whom they named Ganga because she was born in the sacred Sangam area.

The family was very happy and thanked the doctors for their help.

The government also provided some money to help with the mother and baby's care.

This was the first baby born at the hospital during the Magh Mela.
