Preparations for Simhastha Kumbh Mela 2028 Begin

The groundwork for the grand Simhastha Kumbh Mela 2028 in Ujjain has officially started.
A four-member delegation from Madhya Pradesh, led by Additional Chief Secretary Sanjay Dubey, visited Nashik on Wednesday, October 15, to study how Nashik successfully planned and managed its own Kumbh Mela.

This visit marks a major step in ensuring that Ujjain’s upcoming Simhastha 2028 will be well-organized, safe, and globally recognized for its efficiency and devotion.

Meeting with Nashik Administration

The Ujjain delegation included Divisional Commissioner Ashish Singh, Collector Roshan Kumar Singh, and Municipal Commissioner Abhilash Mishra.
They met with senior Nashik officials at the office of Divisional Commissioner Dr. Praveen Gedam.

During the session, Kumbh Mela Authority Commissioner Shekhar Singh, Municipal Commissioner Manisha Khatri, Collector Ayush Prasad, and Additional Commissioner Karishma Nair shared their experiences in infrastructure planning, sanitation systems, and crowd management strategies.

Learning from Nashik’s Model

Dr. Gedam presented a detailed overview of the Ministerial Committee and the Kumbh Mela Authority, explaining ongoing development projects in Nashik such as road expansion, ghat development, sewage systems, and the Ramkal Path project.

Key areas of focus included:

• Infrastructure Development: Road widening, ghat improvement, drainage, irrigation, and urban upgrades.

• Transport & Connectivity: Better rail, air, and road access with expanded parking zones.

• Essential Services: Improved sanitation, clean drinking water, and Sadhu Gram arrangements.

• Safety & Security: CCTV surveillance, police deployment, and rapid emergency response systems.

Municipal Commissioner Manisha Khatri highlighted ongoing civic projects, while Collector Ayush Prasad presented an overview of Nashik’s management systems that ensure smooth operations during large-scale pilgrimages.

Ujjain Extends Invitation

At the conclusion of the meeting, Additional Chief Secretary Sanjay Dubey and Collector Roshan Kumar Singh invited Nashik’s senior officials to visit Ujjain to witness and share feedback on its ongoing Simhastha 2028 preparations.

Later, the Ujjain delegation visited Tapovan, sewage project sites, and the Ramkund complex to study Nashik’s on-ground arrangements and practical approaches to handling millions of pilgrims safely.

Why This Visit Matters

The Simhastha Kumbh Mela is one of the world’s largest spiritual gatherings, and Ujjain plays a central role in this sacred tradition.
This study visit signifies Ujjain’s commitment to learning from proven models and ensuring that Simhastha 2028 will be organized with efficiency, safety, and sustainability.

The collaboration between Ujjain and Nashik showcases how spiritual devotion and civic planning can work together to create an experience that is both divine and well-managed.

A Step Towards a Modern and Spiritual Ujjain

Ujjain is not just preparing for another religious event — it’s preparing to set new benchmarks in spiritual tourism, infrastructure, and crowd management.
The lessons learned from Nashik will help Ujjain deliver a technologically advanced, eco-friendly, and spiritually rich Simhastha Kumbh Mela in 2028.
