Prime Minister Narendra Modi will visit Prayagraj on December 13 for a three-hour tour, The Indian Express reported. During his visit, he will inaugurate and lay the foundation for projects worth ₹7,000 crore. He will also perform a puja at the Sangam.
PM Modi is set to arrive around 11 am and will travel from Arail Ghat to Quila Ghat on a hybrid electric catamaran named after Nishadraj, which he previously launched in Varanasi.
Most of the projects are linked to road and corridor development, with a key highlight being the Shringverpur Dham corridor. Known as the “Kingdom of Nishadraj” in the Ramayana, the corridor aims to make pilgrim visits to Shringverpur easier.
Modi will also inaugurate projects related to railways, airports, irrigation, road development, and the beautification of ghats. Additionally, he will launch the “Kumbh Sahayak Chatbot” to support pilgrims.
The visit emphasizes infrastructure development and better connectivity, with a strong focus on boosting tourism and pilgrimage experiences in the region.
