The event, held at Thakkar Maidan, marked the formal launch of a large-scale urban renewal plan led by the Nashik Municipal Corporation (NMC), Public Works Department (PWD) and the Nashik–Trimbakeshwar Kumbh Mela Authority.
Fadnavis said the upcoming Kumbh was not only a religious congregation but also an opportunity to strengthen Nashik’s place on the global spiritual map.
