Prayagraj, Nov 3
Under the leadership of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, the Uttar Pradesh government is dedicated to making the upcoming Mahakumbh in Prayagraj the most magnificent and divine event to date.
The officials and other employees are working round the clock to ensure that the mega religious programme becomes a memorable one.
In line with this vision, the Allahabad Museum plans to enhance the grandeur of the Mahakumbh with a unique exhibition.
The museum has requested approximately 12,000 square feet from the fair administration to showcase a replica of the Kalash dripping Amrit, along with a celebration of Indian art and culture.
According to Rajesh Mishra, Deputy Curator of the museum, the Amrit Kalash is set to become a major attraction for devotees, both domestic and international.
Plans include creating a designated selfie point, allowing visitors to capture memorable moments with this striking installation.
Reflecting the mythological significance of the Mahakumbh, the Amrit Kalash will be a highlight of this grand event.
In addition to the Mahakumbh preparations, the Allahabad Museum is home to the world's first gallery dedicated to the lives and contributions of key revolutionaries from the 1857 uprising to India's independence.
This gallery chronicles the 90-year saga of the freedom struggle, featuring nearly all major freedom fighters from the extremist faction who fought for the nation's liberation.
Visitors will have a unique opportunity to learn about heroes such as Mangal Pandey and Chandrashekhar Azad.
The gallery combines digital and written displays, creating an engaging space to honour and educate about these remarkable revolutionaries. Each exhibit vividly recounts the sacrifices made by those who fought for India's freedom, leaving visitors inspired by their bravery and legacy.
As Prayagraj gears up for the Mahakumbh, these initiatives aim to create an unforgettable experience that honours both spiritual and historical significance. According to officials, the Mahakumbh next year is going to leave an indelible mark on the memory of the people who visit the venue.
