Modi inaugurates 167 key infra projects ahead of Maha Kumbh

PRAYAGRAJ:

Addressing a public meeting here while inaugurating various developmental projects, the Prime Minister said the differences of castes and sects disappear at the Maha Kumbh.

"The Maha Kumbh is a mahayagya of unity," Modi said. "It will take the country's cultural and spiritual identity to new heights." The Prime Minister inaugurated 167 key development projects worth ₹5,500 crore, aimed at improving the city's infrastructure for the 2025 Maha Kumbh mela.

The projects also included Sah'AI'yak Chatbot -- an Artificial Intelligence-based platform to streamline communication for devotees attending the Maha Kumbh.

Before attending the public meeting, the PM began the visit with the ceremonial puja and darshan at the holy Sangam --the confluence of the Ganga, Yamuna and the Saraswati rivers. Modi undertook a river cruise before the puja.

Uttar Pradesh Governor Anandiben Patel and chief minister Yogi Adityanath were also present with the Prime Minister at the puja.
