After this, the temple which was closed for 500 years was reopened and the procession of Lord Mahakal started again. Simhastha Kumbh was also started after 500 years. From that time onwards, the process of some or the other member of the Maratha Empire Scindia royal family participating in the procession of Lord Mahakal started. The Scindia family is still carrying out this tradition.
Today, Jyotiraditya Scindia and Mahan Aryaman Scindia will first land in Indore and will attend the MPCA Annual Award Show at Brilliant Convention Center, behind Bapat Hospital, Indore.
Time: 04:30 PM
After this, they will leave for the royal procession in Ujjain.
