Rituals and significance
Chhath Puja, also known as Pratihar, Dala Chhath, Chhathi, or Surya Shashthi, holds special importance in Bihar, Jharkhand, and Uttar Pradesh, though its devotion now resonates across the nation.
On the final day, devotees gather near rivers, ponds, or ghats before sunrise. They offer fruits, Thekua (a special jaggery-based sweet), sugarcane, and coconuts to the sun while chanting traditional hymns.
The ritual of Usha Arghya celebrates new beginnings and the power of the morning sun, symbolizing light triumphing over darkness. Devotees pray for the prosperity, longevity, and happiness of their loved ones.
