The Kol Mahakumbh will be held on February 24, 2023 in Satna, and it is expected that the Union Home Minister, Amit Shah, will be present. It is being speculated that Shah's presence in Satna is aimed at improving the deteriorating situation in the Vindhya region. The Kol Mahakumbh is being seen as an attempt to win over the Kol community in the Vindhya region during the election year

In the previous election, Vindhya had provided unilateral support to the BJP. On Saturday, Shah will arrive at Satna airport via road at 10 am, from where he will fly to Khajuraho airport by helicopter and depart for Gorakhpur at 10:50 am.
