MAHAKUMBH NAGAR: Ahead of Maha Kumbh, one of the largest gatherings of Sanatan faith devotees, hundreds of organisations are gearing up to serve free meals to millions of pilgrims as an act of religious merit.
These organisations will host ‘bhandaras’ (community feasts) throughout the sprawling fairground, offering free meals to all devotees. While some have already started their services, others are set to launch them soon.
According to Vijay Vishwas Pant, Commissioner of Prayagraj Division, the Maha Kumbh in Janaurt is expected to see the participation of 8,000 to 10,000 organisations, among which hundreds will host free meals through bhandaras and langars.
