"Kumbhathon: An AI-Powered Smart Safety and Information Hub for Large-Scale Pilgrim Event Management"

The proposed system demonstrates how Artificial Intelligence can be effectively used to improve safety, communication, and navigation in large-scale events. By integrating modules such as fake news detection, route risk prediction, multilingual voice assistance, and secure authentication, the system provides a centralized and efficient platform for both users and administrators. The system reduces dependency on manual processes, enhances decision-making, and ensures better accessibility for users with different language backgrounds. It also offers quick and reliable responses, making it suitable for real-time environments. Overall, the project provides a scalable and user-friendly solution that can be applied to similar mass gathering events in the future. With further enhancements and real-time integration, the system has the potential to become a powerful tool for smart event management and public safety.
