Prime Minister Narendra Modi emphasized the Maha Kumbh Mela’s cultural and spiritual significance. The Prime Minister said that the huge religious gathering reflects India’s enduring spiritual legacy and that it is a very significant day for everyone who loves Indian culture and values.
“A very special day for crores of people who cherish Bharatiya values and culture! Mahakumbh 2025 commences in Prayagraj, bringing together countless people in a sacred confluence of faith, devotion and culture The Maha Kumbh embodies India’s timeless spiritual heritage and celebrates faith and harmony,” he said on social media.
Vaibhav Krishna, DIG for the Maha Kumbh Mela informed that more than 60 lakh people have taken a holy dip. Soon, official numbers will be made public. Everything has been planned, and crowd control is going well. There are plenty of parking spaces accessible for cars. With the deployment of both Central and State police forces, they are equipped to handle any circumstance.
Uttar Pradesh DGP Prashant Kumar stated that this year, it is a blend of faith and modernity. In addition to the traditional police system, they have enhanced arrangements for devotees using advanced technology. ‘Pushp Varsha’ will also take place.
Sharing his message on the social media platform, the Chief Minister Yogi also welcomed devotees, saints, and Kalpvasis to the grand spiritual gathering emphasising the confluence of faith and modernity that the Mahakumbh represents.
Every three years, the Kumbh Mela takes place in four separate places. Every twelve years, Mahakumbh is held exclusively in Prayagraj. Additionally, the unusual cosmic alignment that only happens once every 144 years makes Mahakumbh 2025 even more significant in addition to its religious significance.
Prayagraj will host the Mahakumbh Mela from January 13, until February 26, 2025. Millions of pilgrims looking for spiritual cleansing are probably going to attend the holy event.
