Triveni- Sangam is confluence of Ganga, Yamuna and gyan ganga Saraswati . Since the time immemorial, Kumbh is celebrated by scholars by diving into the holy Ganga and preaching to the pilgrims on dharma. The spiritual, mesmerizing and epiphanic value of Kumbh Mela in India leaves an indelible imprint on the minds of the devout pilgrims.
Samvad (dialogue) has always been an inevitable part of Kumbh Mela which is guiding the society for righteousness and rulers for good governance.
After successful organization of Kumbh Conclave 2018-19, India Think Council is organizing Sangam Samvad; in pursuit of promoting cultural and religious economy, covering 12 broad subjects which were part of the various plenary sessions during Kumbh Conclave in Prayagraj and Goa.
