Delhi-NCR witnessed lakhs of devotees, including politicians, participating in Chhath celebrations. The festival, widely celebrated by people from Bihar and eastern UP, holds significance in the political landscape of Delhi due to the large number of Purvanchalis residing there. Devotees observed a 36-hour fast and performed rituals like standing in waist-deep water and offering prayers to the setting sun. Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and several BJP leaders were seen joining the festivities at various locations.
