00:00Mahakumbh will give Banaras more than 25,000 crores in business.
00:05You must be surprised to hear this, but there is no need to be surprised.
00:09Because Mahakumbh, which is starting the Trikodi Yash Trinkhala in Banaras,
00:13this Trikodi Yash Trinkhala is not only going to benefit not only Prayagraj but also Kashi financially.
00:21It is said that in Mahakumbh, crores of devotees will come to bathe in the Ganga.
00:28It is estimated that one-fourth of the devotees who will come to Prayag will reach Banaras.
00:34And here they will see the beauty of Banaras by visiting Baba Vishwanath.
00:39This is the reason why Banaras' tourism business is seen to be worth more than 25,000 crores.
00:45According to the people associated with the tourism business,
00:49since the construction of the Kashi Corridor, a large number of devotees and devotees have come to Varanasi.
00:56After the construction of Lord Ram's statue in the Ram Mandir,
01:01a large number of devotees reached the corridor and now a large number of devotees are going to come to Prayag.
01:07And this Trikodi Yash Trinkhala is going to give a big benefit to Prayag, Ayodhya as well as Banaras.
01:13They said that a large number of devotees are being queried.
01:18And from this query, it can be estimated that Kashi's business will go above 25,000 crores this time.
01:25In which a large number of foreigners as well as foreigners tourists and devotees are included.
01:30See, this time in January, Mahakumbh is coming.
01:34The tourism business of Kashi has been waiting for this for many years.
01:38Because this is a very big opportunity.
01:41Generally, festivals are of 1-2-3 days, whether it is Diwali or Diwali.
01:45But the flow that will come in the tourism business of Mahakumbh,
01:50as many pilgrims and pilgrims will come to Kashi.
01:53Whatever is going to Prayagraj, it is going to be Kashi.
01:56And the tourism business will get a long-term benefit.
02:00Mahakumbh is starting from 13th January.
02:03And it is Mahakumbh till 26th February.
02:06The benefit of January, February and the rest of the movement will be available till March 15th.
02:13And the biggest thing is that Kashi, Prayag and Ayodhya,
02:18all three are the most important religious pilgrimage of India.
02:24It is developing as the biggest triangle.
02:27And the biggest thing is that people are coming to Kashi,
02:31so they are also traveling here for 1-2-3 days.
02:34Similarly, they are going to Prayag and then to Ayodhya.
02:37So the benefit of Mahakumbh will be available to all three cities.
02:41The bookings of Mahakumbh are very good.
02:46More than 60-70% bookings have been done.
02:49And more than 100% queries are going on.
02:52And along with hotels, there is also a very good business in transport facilities.
02:58If we talk about the whole month,
03:00then I feel that the business of at least Rs 20,000-25,000 crores
03:05should be available to the pilgrims in the coming three months,
03:08which is January, February and March.
03:11After the construction of Vishwanath Dham,
03:13crores of pilgrims are coming to Banaras.
03:16This is the reason that Banaras has left the pilgrimage of South and Goa behind.
03:21And Kashi is proving to be the number one destination in terms of pilgrimage.
03:26And the Mahakumbh in Prayagraj has made this destination even more special.
03:31Because more than a quarter of the people coming to Prayag
03:34expect to come to Banaras.
03:36Because of this, not only the hotel business, restaurant business,
03:40but also handicrafts will benefit in large numbers.
03:43If you talk about the percentage,
03:45then as we are saying,
03:48people will definitely come to Prayagraj.
03:51A very large part of it will also connect with Banaras.
03:54Because in Kashi, there is the main international airport,
03:57all the transits are from here.
03:59So we expect that 75-80% tourists,
04:04if they are coming to Mahakumbh,
04:06they will definitely touch Banaras.
04:08Because as we know,
04:10this is the tourist season of foreign tourists,
04:13which is considered to be the peak season from November to February.
04:16If there is Kumbh at that time,
04:18then we believe that in this number,
04:21there can be an increase of about 8-10 times,
04:24more than the normal time.
04:26There is also an attraction of tourists,
04:29who like Indian festivals, big fairs,
04:33and gatherings like this.
04:36On top of that, such a large spiritual destination has been connected,
04:40which is what we are saying at the moment.
04:43That is, in Ayodhya, Prayagraj and Banaras,
04:46Mahakumbh will do the work of a cherry on the cake.
04:49So that is also a big attraction for foreign tourists.
04:51In short, it can be said that
04:53the blessing of Mahakumbh is also going to be received by Kashi.
04:56And this blessing will be seen by Kashi as a business of crores of rupees,
05:00where a large number of tourists will come to Banaras.
05:04And this arrival will bomb Kashi's tourism business in this new year.
