Very few devotees took holy dip in Triveni Sangam in Prayagraj and river Ganga in Varanasi on the occasion of 'Akshaya Tritiya' amid nationwide lockdown to prevent COVID-19 transmission.
"People are locked in their houses and if they get out they will catch the disease.
There is no crowd at sangam, hardly one-two people," said the Priest at Sangam Ghat.
Akshaya Tritiya is an annual spring time festival of the Hindus and Jains.
