Ganga Sagar Mela Amid Corona Spike? Experts Suspect of Surge
As Bengal sees a surge in Covid-19, it has still not been confirmed if the Ganga Sagar Mela will take place this year. Ganga Sagar Mela is set to start from January 8 and will continue up to January 16. The holy dip will take place on January 14 and and around 30 lakh people are supposed to gather there.
A medical practitioner has already filed a case in Calcutta High Court to disallow the Ganga Sagar Mela. Hearing of this case will take place on January 5.
Sources say that until now government is monitoring the situation and is about to take final call on this. Speaking to News18, Dr Kunal Sarkar said, “Ganga Sagar mela will lead to further surge and that might be slaughter. Government should not go ahead with that.”
