Before this, the grandeur of Ganga Aarti was reduced. After the blast on the Ganges Ghat, people were banned from coming. Due to the havoc of Corona this time, devotees will attend aarti in small numbers. The entry of devotees into the sanctum sanctorum of Kashi Vishwanath temple has been banned. While many Buddhist temples in Sarnath have been closed for tourists. While devotees are not happy with this ban, there is a lot of impact on tourism as well.
