Traditionally dedicated to preserving ancient religious customs, these akharas are now aligning tradition with environmental responsibility, incorporating initiatives for ecological preservation into their practices.
As the UP government prepares for the grand celebrations, these akharas, known for their pivotal role in promoting Sanatan Hindu Dharma, will be seen integrating green initiatives into their rituals, symbolizing a harmonious blend of tradition and ecological mindfulness.
The state government is committed to making the Prayagraj Mahakumbh a plastic-free and environmentally friendly event. While the Kumbh Mela administration is actively working towards this goal, the agenda of the akharas and saints now also includes environmental conservation alongside promoting Sanatan Dharma.
