Devotees Carry Ganga Water in Pilgrimage - India

Kanwariyas carry water collected from the Ganga in Sheoraphuli, West Bengal, during the Kanwar Yatra, an annual Hindu pilgrimage dedicated to Lord Shiva. Each year in the sacred month of Sawan, millions of devotees, known as Kanwariyas, travel on foot to collect holy water from the Ganges River and carry it back to their local temples in honor of Lord Shiva. In this leg of the pilgrimage, the participants make their way toward Tarakeswar, a key spiritual destination in West Bengal, before returning to their hometowns. The Kanwar Yatra represents devotion, endurance, and spiritual cleansing. This vibrant religious event also involves singing, chanting, and coordinated group travel, often in decorated processions. The photo was taken on July 27, 2025, in Sheoraphuli, India. Photo by Debajyoti Chakraborty/Middle East Images/ABACAPRESS.COM
