Guru Purnima Celebrated Across Uttar Pradesh

Guru Purnima is a special day when people show their love and respect for their spiritual teachers, called gurus.

On this day, many people in Uttar Pradesh went to holy rivers like the Saryu and Ganga to take a dip, which they believe makes them clean and pure.

They also visited temples to pray and ask for blessings.

In Ayodhya, a special ceremony called Mangal Aarti was performed, and many people became disciples of their gurus.

In Prayagraj, people gathered at the Triveni Sangam to take a holy dip and perform rituals.

They also made donations to help others.

However, in Varanasi, the Ganga River was rising because of heavy rain, which made it hard for people to reach the ghats and temples.

Despite this, people continued to celebrate Guru Purnima with great devotion.
