Chief Minister Mohan Yadav took the first swing at his childhood home as Ujjain cleared structures to widen roads for the 2028 Simhastha on the Kṣiprā river.
Key data
272 structures razed. The wider plan includes about 29 km of new ghats along with diversion works and dams.
Why it matters
The scale of preparation points to a Prayagraj-size crowd, and displacement and compensation deserve scrutiny.
GK: did you know?
The Ujjain Kumbh is called Siṃhastha because it falls when Bṛhaspati is in Siṃha rāśi.
