As Prayagraj gears up for the Maha Kumbh 2025, the National Mission for Clean Ganga (NMCG), under the Namami Gange programme, is leading initiatives to keep the sacred waters pristine and pure. Advanced technologies are being used for sewage treatment, ghat cleaning, and waste management. Prayagraj has 10 Sewage Treatment Plants (STP) with a cumulative capacity of 340 MLD. Among them, the 42 MLD Naini 2 STP is developed using innovative FCR/Organica technology, alongside other plants like the 80 MLD STP at Naini 1 and the 14 MLD STP at Phaphamau. This advanced technology ensures that the rivers remain in pristine condition for the grand event. As part of its IEC project, NMCG is deploying 1,500 Ganga Sewa Doots and has launched the Paint My City campaign to beautify Prayagraj for the Kumbh Mela. Local artists are creating murals emphasising sustainability and reverence for the Ganga. These efforts aim to ensure a clean, eco-friendly event. During his visit, Prime Minister Narendra Modi emphasized the importance of the "Namami Gange" initiative for rejuvenating the Ganga and called for collective citizen participation.
