Why does Kumbh take place only in Prayagraj, Haridwar, Ujjain and Nashik
During the sea churning, when there was a tug of war between the gods and demons for the Amrit Kalash, some drops of nectar fell at 12 places, out of which four places were on earth and eight places were in Devlok. These 4 places on earth were Prayagraj, Haridwar, Ujjain and Nashik. It is said that a drop of nectar fell in Shipra of Ujjain, Sangam coast of Prayagraj, Ganga in Haridwar and Godavari river of Nashik. That is why Kumbh is organized here, devotees get freedom from sins by bathing in these rivers.
