Uttarakhand Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami shared exciting news on the eve of Holi: the Union Government has approved ₹500 crore to ensure the Haridwar Kumbh Mela becomes a landmark event. Speaking at the BJP headquarters in Dehradun, Dhami painted a vivid picture of the grand spectacle ahead, orchestrated under Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s visionary leadership.
The festivities kicked off with Holi celebrations among party workers, where Dhami conveyed warm wishes to Uttarakhand residents and fellow countrymen. He proudly noted the state’s accelerated growth trajectory, outpacing many peers.
Delving into Kumbh preparations, Dhami detailed the collaborative efforts of state machinery, Mela administration, and local officials. Every aspect—from infrastructure to logistics—is being fast-tracked for the massive influx of pilgrims.
Anticipation builds for Union Home Minister Amit Shah’s arrival on March 7, with comprehensive directives issued for impeccable arrangements. Priorities include ironclad security, streamlined transportation, spotless venues, reliable utilities, and top-notch medical facilities.
Holi, for Dhami, symbolizes unity and devotion. His X post called for collective resolve to eliminate vices and propel the nation forward with harmony and optimism, setting a spirited tone for the Kumbh and beyond.
