Mahakumbh: Mahamarket

 

It takes great ‘entrepreneur skills’ to see business prospects at a truly religious event of Mahakumbh. Obviously, it is one of the largest events where millions of people visit. And people also mean market for doing business. A religious event need not mean a market for only holy products. Therefore the Mahakumbh was also a market for products ranging from fashion accessories such as jewellery and hair accessories for women to herbal medicines and religious souvenirs. Similarly, the management of the entire event could also be a source of knowledge about management. After all managing such a large event where millions of pilgrims flock takes great management skills and mantras to make it happen successfully.
