Guwahati: Preparations have officially begun for the Ambubachi Mela, a major spiritual event held annually at the Kamakhya Temple in Guwahati. Often called the Mahakumbh of the East, the four-day festival is scheduled to start on the night of June 22 and will conclude at sunrise on June 26.
Temple authorities are working closely with the local district administration to finalize logistics, security protocols, and crowd management strategies. Officials expect a large influx of pilgrims, devotees, and ascetics from across the country, with many sadhus already arriving at the Nilachal Hills shrine.
To accommodate the thousands of visitors, organizers are introducing a new access route from the Pandu side to complement the existing Nursery road. This change is intended to reduce congestion and improve the overall flow of foot traffic. Additionally, the temple grounds will be equipped with a new network of advanced CCTV cameras to enhance surveillance throughout the duration of the event.
