Prayagraj, Feb 5 (NationPress) In a unique homage to Prime Minister Narendra Modi during his visit to the ongoing Maha Kumbh in Prayagraj, Zuhaib Khan, a talented artist hailing from Amroha, welcomed the leader in an extraordinary fashion. Utilizing solely coal, Zuhaib expertly crafted a striking 8-foot-high mural directly on a wall, immortalizing the moment of 'Modi in Maha Kumbh' with bold, artistic flair.
"I’m an artist who specializes in wall drawings with charcoal, and today, I felt compelled to honor Prime Minister Modi’s presence at the Maha Kumbh, which holds immense significance in our culture and faith," Zuhaib shared with IANS.
"This artwork represents my deep respect for him and my passion for creativity."
This artist's remarkable piece transcends mere painting — it serves as a heartfelt tribute to a spiritual event that attracts millions.
With the Maha Kumbh symbolizing a blend of faith and culture, Zuhaib aspired to elevate this sacred occasion with his artistry, merging contemporary art with traditional reverence.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi immersed himself in the 'sangam', the confluence of three rivers - the Ganga, the Yamuna, and the legendary Saraswati - in Prayagraj, where the Maha Kumbh is currently taking place, on Wednesday morning.
Dressed in a saffron jacket and blue track pants, the Prime Minister offered prayers while taking multiple dips in the holy river, emphasizing his spiritual connection to the event.
The atmosphere at the Kumbh was electric as millions of devotees congregated for the 'snan', with the Prime Minister's presence enhancing the significance of the occasion.
Despite a tragic stampede earlier in the week that resulted in 30 fatalities, the Maha Kumbh continued to be a beacon of devotion, unity, and cultural richness.
This visit occurs amidst important elections in the national Capital, adding a layer of political importance to this deeply spiritual gathering. While PM Modi engaged in the Kumbh, his party, the BJP, was also strategizing to counter the ruling AAP’s pursuit of a third term in Delhi.
