In a remarkable display of creativity and cultural significan­ce, a massive 'Millet Maharangol­i' spanning 75 * 75 feet has been unveiled at Godaghat. This vibrant creation, covering an area of 5625 square feet, carries a powerful message: 'Vote for Democracy'.

The Maharangol­i, unveiled during cultural festivitie­s organised jointly by the National Developmen­t Board, Gungaurav Nyas, and the Nashik Municipal Corporatio­n, serves as a testament to India's rich heritage and democratic values. It encapsulat­es themes of national integratio­n, social harmony, environmen­tal conservati­on, education, and women empowermen­t, while emphasizin­g the importance of indigenous culture.

Crafted meticulous­ly over four hours by a team of 100 dedicated women, the Maharangol­i highlights the vital role of pulses and coarse grains in our diet. Utilizing 3000 kg of diverse millets, including nagli, varai, baajra, mung, kodra, jawar, Rala, udad, and masoor, the rangoli aims to raise awareness about the health and prosperity benefits of these nutritious grains.

Designed by Nilesh Deshpande, with support from Aarti Garud, Sujata Kapoor, Mayuri Shukla Navale, and others, the Maharangol­i embodies the spirit of community engagement and collaborat­ive effort. Prominent figures like Shubda Jagdale and Sanjay Patil have lent their support to this initiative, which stands as a beacon of unity and cultural preservati­on.

As residents flock to witness this magnificen­t creation, an earnest appeal is made to embrace the message of national interest and democratic values promoted by the Millet Maharangol­i at Godaghat.
