Kalidas Samaroh, to be held from November 12 to 18, will begin from Gadkalika temple in Ujjain on November 10. Kalidas Samman Samaoh is held every year, but it has no permanent structure, so it should be built to reduce the cost of setting up tent afresh every year, Yadav said.
Meeting of Veer Bharat Nyas
Chief Minister Mohan Yadav said instead of the traditional museum which is under-construction in Ujjain, an experiential and activity-based museum should be built and its contents developed accordingly. Since youths will be associated with such a museum, it will become a place of tourism in the country, he said, adding that a committee should be formed to give suggestions for developing contents. Yadav told the officials to think about changing the name of the museum on the basis of the theme of the galleries to be built in the museum.
