We are also meeting with stakeholders regularly, taking suggestions from all those involved in organising the yatra.”He further said, “This time, the yatra is being held a little earlier. The doors are set to open in April, when schools are closed, and there’s a lot of footfall. Therefore, all arrangements are being made to ensure that visitors have a positive yatra experience…A review meeting was held today for the 2027 Kumbh Mela, and the foundation stone was laid for projects worth approximately two hundred and fifty crore rupees.””All work should be completed on time. All arrangements for the Kumbh should be well-organised, and everyone should participate.
