The ‘water way’ of Assi and Namo Ghat can be opened to take Shiva devotees to Kashi Vishwanath temple in Sawan. Devotees will be able to reach Kashi Vishwanath Dham from here in 15-20 minutes without jam and noise. Diesel engine taxis can also be started on these routes before Sawan.
The route to reach Shrikashi Vishwanath Dham can also be made from the Ghat. Preparations are also being made for this.

The temple is being kept cool
Sunil Verma said that it is estimated that more than 6 lakh devotees will visit and worship in the Kashi Vishwanath temple this Sawan.

There will be mats on the ground, on which the devotees will walk barefoot.
