During the India Today Conclave on Saturday, Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh, Yogi Adityanath, celebrated the successful orchestration of Mahakumbh. He reflected on the skepticism around the event's potential reach, originally asserting that 400 million people would attend from across the nation. When faced with further questioning, he realized the turnout could surpass expectations, driven by citizens determined to defy skeptics.
