Reliance Seva’s Service Mission for Mahakumbh Devotees
By A Draft Correspondent
In the heart of India’s spiritual landscape, where faith converges with tradition, the Maha Kumbh Mela 2025 unfolds in Prayagraj—a grand spectacle of devotion, humanity, and timeless rituals. As millions of pilgrims make their way to the sacred confluence of the Ganga, Yamuna, and the mythical Saraswati, the air resonates with the rhythmic chants of prayers, the ringing of temple bells, and the collective energy of a people bound by faith. The Maha Kumbh is more than just a religious gathering; it is an experience of the divine, a testament to India’s cultural richness, and a reminder of the values of service, sacrifice, and selflessness.
Amidst this grand congregation, Reliance Consumer Products Limited (RCPL) has stepped forward with an unwavering commitment to 'seva'—the noble act of selfless service. Their initiatives at the Kumbh Mela are not mere corporate outreach efforts but a deeply ingrained philosophy of giving back to society. In a gathering of this magnitude, where lakhs of devotees embark on arduous journeys to seek spiritual solace, the role of service becomes paramount, and RCPL has embraced this responsibility with a series of impactful acts.

The ‘Campa Ashram’ stands as a beacon of relief for weary travellers, offering a sanctuary where the devout can rest before continuing their spiritual journey. A Kumbh Mela is as much about endurance as it is about faith, and a space to rejuvenate can make all the difference. Alongside this, strategically located ‘Aaram Sthals’ serve as designated rest zones, ensuring that the overwhelming crowd finds moments of peace amid the vast, chaotic energy of the Mela.
Finding one’s way in a congregation that spans miles can be challenging. Recognising this, RCPL has installed directional signage and guidance boards to help pilgrims navigate the colossal gathering with ease. These signs not only aid movement but also bring a sense of security, allowing devotees to focus on their spiritual pursuits without the worry of getting lost in the sea of humanity.
Understanding the physical demands of the pilgrimage, RCPL has also undertaken the noble task of providing essential refreshments to keep the devotees hydrated and energised. Walking for hours under the open sky, standing in long queues, and participating in various religious ceremonies demand stamina, and a simple act of offering water and nutritious snacks becomes an invaluable gesture of care.
But the essence of ‘seva’ at the Maha Kumbh Mela goes beyond tangible offerings. It lies in the spirit of compassion, the willingness to serve, and the deep-seated belief that helping another in their spiritual journey is itself an act of devotion. Ketan Mody, Chief Operating Officer of RCPL, encapsulates this sentiment perfectly: "Our participation in Maha Kumbh Prayagraj 2025 is about honouring the spirit of this grand spiritual gathering while empowering the everyday life of all pilgrims and consumers at large with our products and services."
Guided by its ‘We Care’ philosophy, Reliance is providing the pilgrims with a wide spectrum of services – from nourishing meals and essential healthcare to safe transportation and seamless connectivity.
“It is said that when we serve Teerth Yatris, we too are blessed. Our services to the pilgrims who are on a spiritual journey, in a once-in-a-millennium event, aim to meet the needs of the most vulnerable among them,” said Anant Ambani, Director, Reliance Industries Limited. “We believe in our ‘We Care’ philosophy. At the Maha Kumbh, the world's largest religious and cultural congregation, it is our opportunity to serve, to enable health, welfare and safety of lakhs of pilgrims, and to make their journey safer, smoother and easier.”
The Maha Kumbh is a celebration of interconnectedness—between the mortal and the divine, the individual and the collective, the giver and the receiver. Every act of service, no matter how small, contributes to the greater experience of this sacred congregation. RCPL’s efforts are not just about logistical support; they are about preserving the sanctity of the Kumbh Mela experience and ensuring that every pilgrim leaves with a heart full of devotion and a soul touched by kindness.
As the sun sets over the Triveni Sangam, casting a golden glow over the gathered millions, one cannot help but marvel at the seamless orchestration of faith, culture, and service. The Maha Kumbh Mela 2025 stands as a testament to the enduring power of belief, the boundless energy of the human spirit, and the timeless tradition of ‘seva’ that continues to define India’s spiritual legacy. In these acts of kindness, amidst the waves of devotion, one finds the true essence of the Kumbh—a place where divinity is not just worshipped but lived, through every gesture of goodwill and every selfless act of service.
