The Uttar Pradesh government is working tirelessly in Prayagraj to make the upcoming Mahakumbh the most magnificent and divine event organized so far.

The Allahabad Museum in Prayagraj plans to elevate the grandeur of Mahakumbh with a unique display. The museum will showcase a replica of the Kalash dripping Amrit and has requested approximately 12,000 square feet from the fair administration to feature an exhibition celebrating Indian art and culture.

According to Dr Rajesh Mishra, Deputy Curator of the museum, here on Sunday the Amrit Kalash will be a major attraction for devotees from India and abroad, with plans to develop it as a selfie point. Reflecting the mythological significance of Mahakumbh, the Amrit Kalash installation is set to be a memorable highlight of this grand event.

The Allahabad Museum in Prayagraj has established the world’s first gallery dedicated to showcasing the lives and contributions of key revolutionaries from the 1857 uprising to India’s independence. This gallery brings to life the 90-year saga of the freedom struggle, featuring almost all the major freedom fighters from the extremist faction who fought for the nation.

The visitors will have the unique opportunity to learn about heroes ranging from Mangal Pandey to Chandrashekhar Azad. This gallery, a blend of digital and written displays, offers a space to honor and learn about these remarkable revolutionaries. Each exhibit vividly recounts the history of those who made the ultimate sacrifice for India’s freedom, leaving visitors moved by their bravery and legacy.
