" The team from Prayagraj was also invited by the Madhya Pradesh govt to present their experiences, challenges, successes, and planning strategies. The govt is also considering involving IITs, IIMs, and other reputed institutions in managing one of the world's largest gatherings.

The mobile application will offer a plethora of features, including real-time updates on facility availability, accommodation options, parking slots, and detailed directions. Additionally, it will enable seamless bookings for Darshan and ashrams, covering every aspect from transportation and security to public amenities like toilets and routes. According to the MPSEDC department, the app will also act as a critical tool for ensuring safe navigation during the festival, determining the shortest route to their desired destination while indicating crowded areas and suggesting alternative paths. Furthermore, it will provide updates on the availability and condition of nearby toilets and water facilities. "Insights from user data will help predict crowd movements, ultimately enhancing safety and efficiency. A dedicated team of approximately 30 engineers is currently working on the project, with plans to expand to over 100 as the development progresses," said Dubey.
