The Mahakumbh Mela is seeing a lot of buzz around Amarjeet, better known as Anaaj Wale Baba. Hailing from Uttar Pradesh’s Sonbhadra district, Anaaj Wale Baba has become the centre of attention for growing crops like wheat, millet, gram, and peas on his head.

For the past five years, Baba has used this unusual method to spread awareness about protecting the environment. A Hatha Yogi by practice, he says this effort is his way of promoting peace and highlighting the importance of greenery, especially as deforestation continues to harm the planet.

“I decided to do this after seeing how cutting trees is affecting our world. Wherever I go, I encourage people to plant more greenery,” said Baba. He even waters the crops on his head regularly to keep them healthy, leaving visitors amazed.

Currently staying near Kila Ghat for Kalpavas, Anaaj Wale Baba has become a major attraction at the fair. Many devotees are surprised by his dedication and wonder how he manages to grow crops on his head. After the mela, Baba plans to return to Sonbhadra to continue his mission of promoting greenery and peace. (ANI)
