Some 40 crore pilgrims are set to attend the 2025 Maha Kumbh in Prayagraj , compared to the 25 crore footfall in 2019.

The 2025 congregation will be spread over 5,000 hectares. Maha Kumbh will be divided into 25 sectors, with a police station in each sector. And there will be more than 100 police outposts. Each of the 25 sectors of the vast mela area will have one fire station each.

Likewise, the number of pontoon bridges too will be more in 2025. In 2019, authorities had made 22 pontoon bridges across the rivers Ganga and Yamuna whereas in 2025, the number will increase to 27.

The devotees coming to Maha Kumbh will have a stretch of 10 km to bathe during the 44-day mela.

Arrangements will be made near the mela area and also in the outskirts of the city, to accommodate around four lakhs vehicles in a day.

Likewise, there will be multiple entry and exits for the vast mela area.

There will be theme-based gates for different sectors and areas of the mela so that if anyone wants to meet their relative or someone else, he or she can inform them about their whereabouts on the basis of the theme of the respective gate.”
