Prayagraj, also known as Allahabad, holds a sacred place among India’s holiest cities. It is home to the Triveni Sangam, the confluence of three rivers—Ganga, Yamuna, and the mythical Saraswati. As part of preparations for Mahakumbh 2025, multiple development and beautification projects are underway in the city, including the creation of a new corridor for the Reclining Hanuman Temple. This ancient temple attracts hundreds of devotees daily, and with the anticipated influx of pilgrims during Mahakumbh, the state government has undertaken this initiative to ensure a seamless experience for visitors.
Situated near the Sangam, the Reclining Hanuman Temple is renowned for its unique idol and historical importance. The temple houses Lord Hanuman in a reclining posture, an exceptional depiction that draws devotees seeking blessings and fulfillment of their wishes.
To enhance accessibility for pilgrims, the Uttar Pradesh government has planned a mini-corridor connecting the Reclining Hanuman Temple to Akshayavat. This corridor aims to provide a safe and smooth pathway for devotees to visit these two sacred sites during Mahakumbh 2025.
The corridor will be equipped with modern amenities, including wide roads, efficient lighting, sanitation facilities, and rest areas for pilgrims. Additionally, the pathway will showcase religious and cultural artifacts on either side, enriching the spiritual experience of visitors.
Preparations for Mahakumbh 2025: Comprehensive preparations are underway in Prayagraj for Mahakumbh 2025. Along with the development of the Reclining Hanuman Temple and Akshayavat Corridor, the infrastructure in the Sangam area is being expanded, sanitation facilities are being upgraded, and traffic management plans are being implemented to handle the large crowds expected during the event.
Initiative by Prime Minister Narendra Modi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi has unveiled the plans for the Hanuman and Akshayavat Corridor in Prayagraj. This initiative aims to enhance the experience of pilgrims through better facilities and improved access to these sacred sites.
Benefits for Devotees: The construction of the new corridor will facilitate a hassle-free journey for pilgrims visiting the Reclining Hanuman Temple and Akshayavat. Moreover, it will play a crucial role in managing the heavy footfall during Mahakumbh. By incorporating modern amenities, the corridor is expected to boost religious tourism and strengthen the local economy.
