Prayagraj Mahakumbh 2025 changed the lives of millions of people, including auto drivers, food and drink shops and sailors. In this series, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath shared the success story of a sailor family in the assembly, which claimed to earn Rs 30 crore during the Mahakumbh.
But this statement has now sparked political debate. Former Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav, questioning this claim, has sought the account of GST (GST) from the government.

Akhilesh Yadav’s Tanj: “If you earn 30 crores, how much GST is given?”
Samajwadi Party national president Akhilesh Yadav questioned the truth of this news.
He wrote on social media platform x –
“The truth of this news should be investigated. If a family really earned 30 crores alone in Mahakumbh, then tell how much GST was received? ”
Akhilesh Yadav called it the blind power of the BJP government and said that –
“Took an MoU with the first thug, now praised the name of the name with a closed eye in the House. Now open your eyes! “
Akhilesh’s gesture was clear that CM Yogi is exaggerating any claim without confirmation.
