These researchers will study various aspects of the mass gathering and prepare reports accordingly.
These institutions include Harvard University, Stanford University, Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS), Delhi Indian Institutes of Management (IIMS) from Ahmedabad, Indore, and Bengaluru, Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) from Kanpur and Ahmedabad, Jawaharlal Nehru University, Delhi University, and AIIMS Delhi, among others.
The representatives of these institutes will conduct in-depth studies on multiple topics including event management, socio-economic impact, environmental challenges, tourism, health management, and the use of digital technology.
Officials believe that the findings of this research will not only improve the organisation of the Maha Kumbh for the future but also offer insights into the social and economic effects on Prayagraj and the entire state.
The political implications of the Maha Kumbh are also significant, as Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath is likely to showcase the successful execution of the Maha Kumbh as one of his most significant achievements, and position himself for a larger, national role.
Many BJP supporters see him as a potential successor to Prime Minister Narendra Modi when the time comes.
Ahead of the Maha Kumbh, the government of Uttar Pradesh had invited proposals from researchers and academicians, and set two main categories for the study: the planning and implementation of the Maha Kumbh, and the economic impact and outcomes of the event. Researchers were asked to submit Expression of Interest by December 20.
The goal is to present the Maha Kumbh to the world through the reports prepared by these academic institutions.
