Prayagraj: After a gap of nearly two decades, the Mela campus witnessed not one dispute, agitation, boycott and Dharna / demonstration over the land quota.
Credit for the smooth allotment process went to the District Judge (Magh Mela) Sheh where Pandey and his entire team who had worked tirelessly to drain land among around 3000 organizations despite the fact that the administration of Mela faced land erosion problems several times.
Interestingly, district judges (Magh Mela) immediately after taking over, have done all homework and coordinated with prominent fortune tellers, the Saints related to Akharas, Akhil Bharatiya Dandi Swami Parishad, Dandi Bara, Acharya Bada and Khak Chowk before the foreness training Land which ultimately produces positive results.

“Land allotment is always a busy exercise during an annual religious exhibition as thousands of religious, social and spiritual organizations request land to establish their camp.
This year, officials experienced the right record, bridging the gap of communication and coordination with fortune tellers and prominent saints Before the landfield practice, “said a senior official related to Mela for the past two decades.
“For years, many organizations are not satisfied with land allotment, not only holding a series of Dharnas and demonstrations on Mela Campus but sometimes even boycotting Mela quotes irregularities in land allotment.
However, this year, there are no such activities witnessed Until now, “added the official.
The Mela campus saw many ups and downs during the landfield dispute between 2000 and 2018 and the organization participating in Mela continued to increase their demands to establish their tents.
It was 1996-97 when there was no agitation / dharna or protest for land allotment issues and Mela was carried out peacefully under the Mela officer regime.
However, after 1996, Jatle over land rations had begun and in 2003 watched the worst phase.
DM (Magh Mela) Shesh Mani Pandey said, “Land allotment exercises are carried out successfully and now organizations set up their tents.” Land allotment work began on December 22.
However, he said we held several rounds of meetings with the saints and leading people at various levels to make the exercise easy.
Now, we focus on providing better basic facilities such as drinking water, toilets, strength, roads, ghat baths etc.
