Lucknow/New Delhi, Jan 23 (NationPress) This year, the Uttar Pradesh tableau on Kartavya Path will present the theme "Maha Kumbh 2025: Golden India—Heritage and Development."
The tableau will honor the Maha Kumbh, an event recognized by UNESCO, illustrating the sacred gathering at the confluence of the Ganga, Yamuna, and the unseen Saraswati in Prayagraj, acknowledged as the largest congregation of humanity on the planet.
Maha Kumbh 2025, a crucial global event, embodies a fusion of spirituality, heritage, advancement, and digital innovation. This idea is pivotal to the tableau's structure.
At the forefront is a magnificent, leaning replica of the 'Amrit Kalash', representing the flow of divine nectar (Amritdhara). Accompanying it are scenes of saints and sages blowing conches, meditating, and sipping holy water, alongside devotees engaging in ritual dips at the confluence, encapsulating the spiritual essence of the event. Visitors globally will experience this unparalleled gathering under the stewardship of the Yogi Adityanath government.
The tableau’s trailer panel will feature murals and LED screens displaying Akharas and devotees partaking in the Amrit Snan (royal bath). The centerpiece will illustrate the mythological narrative of Samudra Manthan (churning of the ocean), highlighting the historical and spiritual importance of the Maha Kumbh.
The rear segment will showcase representations of the 14 divine treasures (ratnas) that surfaced from the churning, including Halahal poison, Kamdhenu cow, Uchhai Shrava horse, Airavat elephant, Kaustubh Mani, Kalpavriksha, Rambha Apsara, Lakshmi, Varuni, the Moon, Parijat tree, Shankh, Dhanvantari, and Amrit (nectar).
Moreover, the tableau will emphasize the cutting-edge technology, management, and digitization utilized for organizing Maha Kumbh 2025.
A key feature will be the advanced Integrated Command and Control Center (ICCC), showcasing excellence in crowd management and security.
The live visuals of the Akhara processions for the Maha Kumbh festival bath will also be streamed via LED screens, enriching the presentation with a dynamic and immersive experience.
