MAHAKUMBH NAGAR (PRAYAGRAJ):

Extending his New Year wishes, the CM said, "With everyone's cooperation, the honour of hosting the Mahakumbh with full grandeur will not only reflect the efforts of the double-engine government, but also the pride of the people of Prayagraj. I appeal to the residents of Prayagraj to seize this opportunity to surpass the remarkable example of cleanliness and hospitality they set during the 2019 Kumbh. This time too, our Prayagraj will shine as a model of cleanliness and exemplary hospitality."

He was addressing media persons, highlighting the extensive development and rejuvenation of Prayagraj, after conducting the meeting to review preparations for the mega fair.

"Over 200 roads have been upgraded, with single-lane roads converted to double lanes, double lanes to four lanes, and four lanes to six lanes. Of the 14 flyovers and ROBs planned, 13 have been completed, with the last one also nearing completion. Numerous beautification projects have also been undertaken within the city," he shared.

Arrangements have been made within the city to establish holding areas for pilgrims, both at railway stations and in their vicinity.

Additionally, the Mela authority has identified and developed parking spaces across 5,000 acres, located 2 to 5 km from Sangam along key routes to Prayagraj.

These parking areas are equipped with checkpoints, robust security arrangements, and public address systems to ensure smooth and safe operations during the Mahakumbh, he added.

A 12-km-long temporary ghat is also being prepared, with most of it nearly ready. Additionally, a permanent ghat is under construction near LUCKNOW: Uttar Pradesh cabinet will meet at Prayagraj during the Mahakumbh-2025 commencing there on January 13, 2025.
