Acting on the instructions of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath during his recent visit to Prayagraj, authorities have swiftly allocated land to over 4,000 organisations, with an estimated 8,000 to 10,000 organisations expected to participate in Maha Kumbh 2025.

A key highlight of the grand event is the establishment of Akharas, which is progressing steadily.

Some Akharas have already set up their camps, while the Mela Authority has completed land allocation for most Akharas and other organisations.

The remaining allocations, including for new applicants, are underway and set to be finalised by the year-end. According to the Mela Authority, land allocation has been completed for all Akharas, their follower Akharas, Mahamandaleshwar, Khalsa, Dandiwada, Acharyawada, and Khakachowk.

The allocation process for Prayagwal groups and new organisations is expected to be finished by December 31.

In a review meeting with Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, it was reported that land has already been allocated to a total of 4,268 organisations.

This includes 19 land allotments for Akharas and their sub-groups, 460 for Mahamandaleshwar, 750 for Khalsa, 203 for Dandiwada, 300 for Acharyawada, 300 for Khakachowk, and 1,766 for other organisations.

Additionally, 450 land allotments have been made to Prayagwal groups so far. The land allocation for Prayagwals began on December 12 and will continue until December  31.

Similarly, the process for new organisations started on December 16 and is set to conclude by the end of the year.

The land allocated to Akharas and other organisations is now a hub of activity, with tent construction and decorations progressing rapidly.

In the Jhunsi area, representatives from Akharas, Mahamandaleshwar, Khalsa, Dandiwada, Acharyawada, Khakachowk, and other organisations are busy setting up tents and decorations in line with their traditions and culture. The administration has laid checkered plates across the area and is rapidly installing signages to help visitors easily locate their designated spaces.

Additionally, lighting and other essential arrangements are being made to meet deadlines.

The Juna Akhara and Avahan Akhara have already entered the Cantonment, while the Agni Akhara also entered the Cantonment on Thursday.

With activities progressing swiftly, the entire area is expected to be fully prepared and adorned by January  1.
