Simultaneous arrangements are also being made to bring the Prime Minister to Sangam via the Naini Bridge route, though the cruise liner remains the more likely option, they added.

On Thursday, senior district officials convened to discuss the Prime Minister’s arrival on December 13, as well as the chief minister Yogi Adityanath’s prior visit to Prayagraj in preparation for the event. Indications of the PM arriving at Sangam via the cruise liner were shared during the meeting.

Discussions focused on the Prime Minister’s itinerary and associated arrangements for the CM’s visit. Officials were instructed to construct a VIP jetty at Arail to facilitate the PM’s travel.

According to the tentative plan, the Prime Minister will arrive at Bamrauli by air, proceed to Shringverpur Dham, and then travel to Arail via helicopter. Nishadraj cruise liner, expected to arrive in Prayagraj from Varanasi by December 5, will likely transport the PM from Arail to Sangam.
