02:32management is done by the Mela administration.
02:36Many devotees are there.
02:37Let me talk to them.
02:38How much did you have to walk?
02:39How are you feeling?
02:40No, this time it is very good and you have to do a little penance to get the full result.
02:46You have to do a little penance to get the full result and it is very important and everyone
02:52is getting a strange energy.
02:53Tiredness is not visible on anyone's face whether he is old or a child, everyone's face is full
02:58of anger.
02:59There is no tiredness anywhere.
03:00Walking on foot is also a matter of happiness.
03:01Where have you come from?
03:02I have come from Lucknow.
03:03Yes, yes.
03:04How much did you have to walk after taking a holy dip?
03:05It is very good to walk because this is the Mahakumbh Mandir.
03:06So, you can see the visuals and the devotees claiming that this is the best administration
03:29of any crowd management, the mounted police is there, the horse-riding police is there,
03:36those who are managing the crowd and this mounted police is the basic requirement for
03:42any crowd management.
03:43You can see through the visuals that the police personals are there for the crowd management
03:48over here, the horse-riding police is there, those who are there for the crowd management
03:54and of course, you can see that this is the crowd management, the basic funda that the

04:06on its toes, the administration and the police are present in large number and the reason
