Prayagraj: The whole world is keeping an eye on the Kumbh Mela which is going to be held in Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh early next year. Crores of people are expected to attend this largest gathering of humans on earth. However, there are a large number of people who wish to go to Mahakumbh but are unable to go due to some reasons.

IIIT is working on several projects for the upcoming Maha Kumbh Mela, one of which is to give people a virtual tour of the fair.
