New Delhi, Jan 21 (NationPress) During the ongoing Maha Kumbh Mela, millions of devotees are receiving 'Mahaprasad' thanks to the collaborative efforts of the prominent corporate giant, Adani Group, along with the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON).

Devotees have praised the contributions of industrialist Gautam Adani, urging other business leaders to emulate his philanthropic spirit.
Ankit, a devotee from Jaunpur, stated, “The arrangements orchestrated by Adani Ji are extraordinary. Offering complimentary, high-quality meals to millions of devotees showcases his dedication to Sanatan Dharma. It’s invigorating to witness a business leader endorsing religious principles. I’ve also heard he intends to visit the Maha Kumbh, and it would be fantastic if more business leaders engaged in similar initiatives.”
Gautam Adani is scheduled to visit Prayagraj on Tuesday, where he plans to pray at the Triveni Sangam and seek blessings at the esteemed 'Bade Hanuman Ji temple'. He will also check in at the ISKCON VIP tent (Sector 18) to supervise the Mahaprasad distribution.
Another devotee, Sachin Bhardwaj, conveyed his appreciation, stating, “Everything here is well-organized. Adani Ji is performing remarkable work by organizing such extensive provisions for devotees. His endeavors are commendable, and it’s heartwarming to see millions benefiting from these efforts. I believe that every successful individual should support such noble causes.”
A devotee from Jamshedpur echoed similar thoughts: “The Bhandara organized by Adani Ji is a true blessing. In addition to food, he is providing electric vehicles for senior citizens and those with disabilities, ensuring their comfort during this pilgrimage. Such actions reveal genuine devotion and social accountability.”
The partnership between the Adani Group, ISKCON, and Gita Press has become a pivotal aspect of the Maha Kumbh, establishing a standard for corporate engagement in religious and societal contributions. Devotees wish that more business figures will draw inspiration from this initiative and contribute to the promotion of Sanatan Dharma and community welfare.
The ‘Mahaprasad Seva’ is available to devotees throughout the entire duration of the Maha Kumbh Mela.
To launch the ‘Seva Hi Saadhna Hai’ initiative, Gautam Adani met with Guru Prasad Swami, the Chairman of the ISKCON Governing Body Commission (GBC), on January 9. Subsequently, Gautam Adani posted on his social media account on X, stating, “Kumbh is that sacred land of service where every hand naturally engages in charity! It is my privilege that during the Maha Kumbh, in partnership with @IskconInc, we are launching 'Mahaprasad Seva' for devotees, offering free meals to millions with the blessings of Maa Annapurna.”
The Adani Group has also teamed up with Gita Press to distribute one crore copies of ‘Aarti Sangrah’ to devotees.
