Kumbh Mela happens in Nasik city after every 12 Years. But very few people know that before AD 1770 Kumbh Mela use to be organized in Kapil dhara tirth, Kavnai. Kavnai is situated 50 Km from Nasik in Igatpuri Taluka. After AD 1770 the Peshwas shifted the kumbh mela to Nasik and Trimbakeshwar. Sant Sri Gajanan Maharaj did meditation in Kapildhara tirth for 12 years starting from AD 1866. Govt. of Maharashtra has given Grant for the development of this tirth.
