Maha Kumbh 2025 now stands as a testament to his vision, blending ancient Sanatan traditions with advanced digital tools. The event is shaping up to be a Digital Maha Kumbh, showcasing how AI and advanced digital tools can enhance the experience of cultural and spiritual gatherings. Additional Mela Officer Vivek Chaturvedi stated that, for the first time, the Kumbh Sahayak chatbot is being developed for the event. Built using advanced generative AI technology, this chatbot will serve as a personal guide for attendees and can be accessed through the Maha Kumbh 2025 app or on WhatsApp. The chatbot will offer essential information about Maha Kumbh in over ten languages, including Hindi and English, with help from the Bhashini app. Through interactive conversations in both text and voice, it will provide details on the events history and traditions, information about sadhus and akhadas, key bathing ghats, dates, routes, parking, and accommodation options. The additional mela officer further shared that the chatbot will come equipped with Google navigation, allowing visitors to easily locate sectors, arenas, Kalpvas tents, and bathing ghats within the Mahakumbh area. The chatbot will also guide users to popular sightseeing spots, temples, railway stations, and bus stands across Prayagraj, ensuring smooth navigation both inside and outside the Maha Kumbh grounds. Additionally, the chatbot will keep users updated on Maha Kumbh events, offer details on government-approved tour packages, and provide information on local hotels and homestays. Acting as a personal guide, Kumbh Sahayak will even engage users with personalised GIFs for a unique interactive experience. With multilingual support, the chatbot aims to serve both international tourists and visitors from across India, helping realise CM Yogis vision for a safe and seamless Maha Kumbh 2025.
