In a vibrant display of spiritual unity, the 2025 Maha Kumbh in Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh, is poised to welcome the three major 'akharas' of the Vaishnav sect on January 13. The Digambar, Nirvani, and Nirmohi akharas, formed post-Mughal era, will be among the centerpiece attractions in this massive event.

Leading the grand procession will be Jagadguru Rambhadracharya, accompanied by key religious leaders, including the mahants of the three akharas. Amid robust security, the procession will move with elephants, horses, and camels, encapsulating the grandeur of the occasion.
