Ash-smeared Naga Sadhus are a huge draw at the world's largest religious congregation at Prayagraj. Sadhus of 13 akharas were the first one to take holy dip in Ganges known as 'Shahi Snan.' The march of Naga Sadhus grabbed attention as they were marching without clothes on their bodies except garlands and smoking wooden pipes. They are known as people who are in search of God and denounce the worldly pleasure. They eat very less just as much as required for survival. Nagas follow stringent rules, they are known for renunciation.
