Prayagraj, the epicentre of Maha Kumbh, is a city steeped in history and spirituality. The city's significance as a pilgrimage site, aptly named 'Tirthraj' or the King of Pilgrimage Sites, is well documented in ancient texts and travelogues.

The Maha Kumbh, a festival revered as the pinnacle of Sanatan Dharma, will unfold its grandeur in Prayagraj. Known as the ‘King of Pilgrimages’ or Tirthraj, Prayagraj is a city where mythology, spirituality, and history converge, making it a timeless embodiment of Sanatan culture. This sacred land, where the Ganga, Yamuna, and the mystical Saraswati rivers unite, serves as a spiritual magnet for millions seeking divine blessings and salvation. Here, the Maha Kumbh transforms into a celestial journey - a ‘triveni’ of devotion, meditation, and spirituality.

On a chilly morning in Prayagraj, the melodious chants of pilgrims filled the air, blending seamlessly with the soft hum of activity at the Central Hospital in Maha Kumbh Nagar.

The Kumbh Mela is the world's largest peaceful gathering, drawing millions pilgrims for a ritual bath in holy rivers. This bath symbolises spiritual cleansing and renewal. It occurs four times every 12 years, rotating between Haridwar on the Ganges, Ujjain on the Shipra, Nashik on the Godavari, and Prayagraj, where the Ganges, Yamuna, and Sarasvati meet.

The Maha Kumbh Mela, a sacred congregation that unfolds every 12 years, is more than a vast gathering. It is a profound spiritual journey rooted in ancient Hindu mythology.

Religious places and activities are growing uncontrollably. The population of spiritual leaders is multiplying alarmingly, and religious cases are piling up in courts.
