Makar sankranti celebration in Bengal



In Bengal every year a Mela is held at Ganga Sagar where the river Ganga is believed to
have dived into the nether world and purified the ashes of the sixty thousand ancestors of
King Bhagirath. This mela is attended by a large number of pilgrims from East India.
