Maha Kumbh 2025 is set to leave an indelible mark, blending India's timeless traditions with modern innovation
-
Prayagraj is alive with anticipation as it prepares to host the Maha Kumbh 2025, an event that promises to redefine the scale and grandeur of spiritual gatherings. Far surpassing the Maha Kumbh of 2013, this year's event is a remarkable blend of tradition and modernity, showcasing India's cultural heritage and its growing global stature.
With a record-breaking budget of Rs 5,010 crore, including a Rs 2,010 crore grant from the Central government, the preparations reflect the Uttar Pradesh government's commitment to making the Maha Kumbh a world-class event. Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath stated, "This Kumbh is a testament to our cultural pride and our ability to host millions of people with modern facilities. It is not just a religious gathering but a global event that unites humanity."
