The canal of Ram Ki Paidi is completely dry in which people are strolling.
50 thousand devotees are getting relief from the heat by bathing in Ram ki Paidi every day
During the scorching heat, Ram Ki Paidi has been the main center of attraction for the devotees coming from outside. From 7 am to 10 pm, around 50 thousand devotees have been getting relief from the heat by bathing in Ram Ki Paidi. Due to the shallow depth of its canal, women and children also bathe in it for hours.
Due to drying up of the canal, the crowd of devotees at Ram Ki Paidi has reduced.
The canal silt is cleaned two to three times every year
The water of Saryu river is filtered and pumped into the canal of Ram ki Paidi. Along with it comes the sand of Saryu which gets deposited in the canal instead of going ahead with the flow of water. That is why the silt of the canal is cleaned two to three times every year. Saryu Jayanti celebrations are to begin next week. Before that it is being cleaned. Saryu Aarti priest Yogendra Pandey said that it is cleaned regularly so that devotees get clean water for bathing.
On the other hand, due to the drying up of the canal, the crowd of devotees that used to stay all day at Ram Ki Paidi is missing. Even those who are reaching here are not staying. The shopkeepers and Saryu priests in the vicinity are also affected by this. However, people are enjoying bathing comfortably in the holy water of Saryu.
