1 2 Prayagraj: Chief minister Yogi Adityanath unveiled the new multi-coloured logo for the 2025 Maha Kumbh in Prayagraj on Sunday. The logo symbolises religious and economic prosperity, with the depiction of the " Amrit Kalash , a sacred vessel from the mythological ocean churning". The logo design features a temple, a seer, an urn, the Akshayvat tree, and an image of Lord Hanuman, representing the confluence of nature and humanity in the Sanatan Dharma.
It also embodies the continuous flow of self-awareness and public welfare, serving as an inspirational emblem for the 2025 Maha Kumbh. Kumbh Mela , recognised by Unesco as an ‘intangible cultural heritage of humanity', is regarded as the world's largest congregation of devotees and pilgrims. With the motto ‘Sarvasiddhipradah Kumbhah' (Kumbh bestows all types of spiritual powers), the Maha Kumbh stands as a profound symbol of spiritual significance.
The logo for Maha Kumbh, one of the largest festivals worldwide, has been crafted to reflect its diverse and far-reaching impact, capturing both its spiritual essence and cultural grandeur. Sadhus and saints from all sects across the country participate in the Maha Kumbh in large numbers, symbolised in the logo by a sadhu blowing a conch. Additionally, two sadhus are depicted in a posture of salutation, reflecting the deep reverence of the event, said a govt spokesperson.
The logo also incorporates key religious sites along the banks of Sangam city and represents various tradit.
