Chhath Puja Shines Bright in Delhi: A Cultural Renaissance

Delhi's Chhath Puja drew crowds this year with its grandeur and elaborate arrangements led by Chief Minister Rekha Gupta. Celebrated along the Yamuna banks for the first time in years, the festival was a significant cultural event for the Purvanchali community, who form a substantial voter base in the capital.

Chief Minister Gupta, alongside BJP officials and Delhi Culture Minister Kapil Mishra, took part in the celebrations by performing rituals such as offering 'Arghya'. She highlighted the happiness of the attendees and expressed satisfaction with the government's extensive preparations.

Despite controversies about the Yamuna's water quality, the festival proceeded without notable disruptions, with many BJP leaders partaking in the occasion. The event underscored the interplay between cultural traditions and the political atmosphere in Delhi.
