Will holy dip in Ganga wash away your sins? PM Modi mocked in India

NEW DELHI - On Sunday, PM Modi visited Prayagraj and took a dip at the "sangam" or the confluence of the Ganga, Yamuna and Saraswati rivers.

It is believed that taking a holy dip at the meeting point, also known as "shahi snann", washes away all the sins a person commits in his/her lifetime.

Samaj Party (BSP) supremo Mayawati asked if Prime Minister Narendra Modi's holy dip in the Ganga river will wash away his sins of "poll promises, treachery and other wrong doings".

"Will a 'SHAHI' dip in Sangam by PM Modi be able to wash sins of reneging poll promises, treachery and other state wrongs?,"

Mayawati asked on Twitter, a day after PM Narendra Modi visited Prayagraj to participate in the Kumbh Mela.
