Prayagraj, January 14, 2025/
The art, culture, and glorious history of Chhattisgarh inspire everyone. Everyone in the country is eager to learn about Chhattisgarh, which is rapidly progressing under the leadership of Chief Minister Shri Vishnudev Sai and with Modi’s guarantee. A glimpse of this can be seen at the Chhattisgarh Pavilion during the Prayagraj Maha Kumbh.
The Chhattisgarh Pavilion is located in Sector 6 of the Maha Kumbh in Prayagraj, near the Lakshmi Dwar and opposite the Kala Gram of the Government of India. Its entrance is designed in the form of the Gaur Mukut, the symbol of Chhattisgarh, which is attracting devotees from afar. A picture of Chitrakot Waterfall in Bastar, known as the Niagara of India, is displayed at the entrance. As soon as one enters the pavilion, a statue of Chhattisgarh Mahatari is installed, and to the right of the entrance, photos and information about the state’s four tutelary goddesses—Maa Mahamaya, Maa Chandrahasini, Maa Danteshwari, and Maa Bamleshwari—are displayed.
Upon entering the pavilion, on the left, the vibrant rural environment of Chhattisgarh is depicted. Here, a complete village is depicted, showcasing traditional rural life along with tribal art, culture, jewelry, and clothing.
Before entering the Chhattisgarh exhibition, Bastar’s Dokra craft and the state animal and bird are displayed. The exhibition showcases the schemes of the Chhattisgarh government, especially the ‘Mor Awas Mor Adhikar’ scheme and the Rs. 3100 per quintal paddy procurement scheme. Replicas of Sirpur and Jaithkham are also created as representations of Chhattisgarh’s historical heritage.
To allow locals and pilgrims from across the country to experience Chhattisgarh more closely, information about government schemes and the state of Chhattisgarh is being shared through virtual reality headsets and 180-degree videos within a dome. There is tremendous enthusiasm among the local people to learn about Chhattisgarh through these technologies, and people are seen waiting in long lines for their turn.
Chief Minister Shri Vishnudev Sai is working on the concept of making Chhattisgarh a developed state, and this concept is gradually taking shape. The number of people coming here to know and understand Chhattisgarh reflects the success of the work being done under the Chief Minister’s leadership. Seeing this, it can be said that a small Chhattisgarh seems to be settled in Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh.
