The holy flag hoisting and sacred Bhoomi Pujan rally started from the ‘Houng Kring Ashram’ and reached the Mela ground where revered saints and monks performed the bhoomipujan and flag hoisting through chanting of Ved Mantras where Banshberia Municipality Chairman Aditya Neogy and other dignitaries were also present. The Yajna (fire sacrifice) was also performed in order to seek the divine blessings for the success of the upcoming Tribeni Kumbha.The hoisted saffron flag will fly in the sky until the Kumbha is colesed on Feb 14th.

The saints, monks and dignitaries were welcomed by Sadhan Mukherjee, Dinabandu Gharai and Samir Guha Roy on behalf of Tribeni Kumbha Porichalana Samiti (TKPS).

Over 5 lakhs pilgrims are expected to attend this year Tribeni Kumbha as told by TKPS to HENB.
