Prayagraj, 11 October (Hindustan Reporter). Along with making Maha Kumbh-2025 grand and divine, the Yogi government is going to present the world's biggest event as an example to the whole world. Along with the successful completion of this big event which will last for about two months, this time many big world records will also be set on the lines of Kumbh 2019. These records will improve upon the records made in Kumbh 2019 and encourage the spirit of public participation in public activities.
While in 2019 the Yogi government had spent Rs 3.5 crore on these activities, this time a budget provision of Rs 5 crore has been made. Through these records, Yogi government will also give the message of green and clean Mahakumbh to the whole world.
The amount will be spent more than last time
Yogi government has made preparations on a large scale to ensure participation of common people on the auspicious occasion of Maha Kumbh. There are also plans to establish four Guinness Book of World Records through public participation. To establish all these activities as world records, a total budget provision of Rs 4.87 crore has been made by the Yogi government. In this, Rs 2.25 crore will be spent on the management of the activities, while Rs 1.62 crore will also be spent on other development works. Earlier, many big world records were set in the 2019 Kumbh, on which the Yogi government had spent an amount of more than Rs 3.53 crore. In this way, an amount of more than Rs 1.25 crore will be spent in the activities organized for various records in Maha Kumbh.
Encouraging the spirit of community participation
The record of maximum handprint printing was set by Yogi government in Kumbh 2019. During that time the signature painting was contributed by 7,664 people on a 60 feet canvas in 8 hours. The record was a community participation activity, in which people from all over the world participated. This activity broke the previous record of 4675 signatures set by South Korea. Yogi government has planned to set a new record in Mahakumbh 2025 by involving 10 thousand people in this activity.
Green energy and clean environment will get a boost
Similarly, in Kumbh 2019, the biggest bus parade was organized by the Yogi government in the fair area on 28 February 2019. Through this activity, a fleet of 503 buses took out a spectacular parade to showcase the efficient management of transport capacity of Prayagraj Mela Authority and Uttar Pradesh State Road Transport Corporation, which attracted everyone's attention. This broke the previous record of 390 buses set by Abu Dhabi. This time in Mahakumbh, there is a plan to take out a parade of one thousand electric rickshaws (e-rickshaws) to give awareness message about green energy and healthy environment.
Will give message of cleanliness
The state government spokesperson said that a record was also set in Kumbh 2019 in terms of simultaneous cleaning of the ghats and the fair area, which shows the commitment of the Yogi government towards cleanliness and garbage disposal system. During that time, 10,180 people participated in the cleanliness campaign at many places at the same time. This was recorded in the Guinness Book of World Records. Plans are being made to break this record in this Mahakumbh. According to the plan, this time 15 thousand people will simultaneously run a cleanliness campaign at various places and ghats in the fair area. Another new record will be set in this cleanliness program, under which 300 people will simultaneously enter the river and carry out the cleaning campaign.
