The Allahabad Museum’s ‘Bhagwat’ exhibition, which is centered on miniature paintings, was opened by Union Culture and Tourism Minister Gajendra Singh Shekhawat.
According to the Union Minister, every effort was being made to make the Maha Kumbh, a holy and heavenly event, even more magnificent and special. Curated by Prayagraj’s ancient museum, the ‘Bhagwat’ exhibition was a significant endeavor to add flair to this momentous event. Everyone’s combined efforts were what made this unmatched Kumbh become magnificent and heavenly. The Union Minister saw the ‘Bhagwat’ exhibition after expressing gratitude to the monument of Shaheed Chandra Shekhar Azad on the museum grounds. “These miniature paintings represent the world, the afterlife, society, art, and culture together,” he remarked, praising the museum staff for the exquisite arrangement. The show combines the Kumbh tradition, Lord Ram and Krishna’s personalities, and the museum’s extensive collection.
Gajendra Singh Shekhawat said that the display highlighted Lord Ram legends and the spiritual value of the Maha Kumbh. An opportunity to comprehend the breadth of art in our nation is provided by this show. India’s grandeur can be seen in the Kumbh. It brings together individuals from various cultural philosophies, religions, and places of worship. Kumbh was the indisputable evidence of India’s unity for those who discuss how the country was divided into separate regions under different rulers before independence.
The minister said that an exhibition called “Shashwat Kumbh” was on display in Kalagram during the Maha Kumbh, illustrating the Kumbh’s efforts to bring the nation together. The Union Minister also unveiled the exhibition book after the opening of the show.
He also unveiled the museum’s publications, including the unique Maha Kumbh ticket for museum admission and the quarterly magazine “Vividha.”
All of the museum’s authorities were present at this ceremony, along with notable local residents.
