Chhath Puja 2024: What Is It and Why Is It the Most Important?

Chhath Puja, a festival celebrated with great fervour, holds a special place in the hearts of millions in India, particularly among the people of Bihar, Jharkhand, and Uttar Pradesh. Observed primarily to thank the Sun God and Chhathi Maiya for the bounties of life and to pray for the well-being of children, this festival emphasises the significance of nature and the elements in our lives.

Significance of Chhath Puja

Chhath Puja is a four-day festival that involves rituals of fasting, bathing, and offering prayers to the rising and setting sun. Devotees gather near riverbanks or water bodies, where they perform various rituals, including the famous "Kharna," where they break their fast with offerings made from jaggery and rice. The final day, known as "Usha Arghya," is dedicated to offering prayers to the rising sun, seeking blessings for health, prosperity, and especially for the safe birth of children.

The connection of Chhath Puja with child birth astrology is profound. Many families partake in this festival as a way to seek blessings for fertility and to ensure safe delivery during childbirth. The rituals are not just about offering prayers but also about establishing a spiritual connection with the divine, asking for health and happiness for future generations.

Chhath Puja and Astrology

Astrological beliefs play a significant role in the rituals of Chhath Puja. Devotees often consult astrologers regarding their birth chart and horoscope 2025 to choose the most auspicious days for conducting the rituals. They believe that performing Chhath Puja on these selected dates enhances the chances of blessings from the celestial bodies, particularly the Sun, which is considered a powerful entity in astrology.

Moreover, astrological consultation for child birth is common among families participating in Chhath Puja. By analysing the birth chart, astrologers provide insights on the best times for conception and pregnancy, as well as the potential challenges that may arise. This knowledge is invaluable for families looking to grow and ensure the well-being of their children.

Conclusion

Chhath Puja is more than just a festival; it is a celebration of life, health, and the connection between humanity and nature. As families come together to pray for their children's future, the festival highlights the importance of astrology in understanding and navigating life's challenges. By intertwining traditional rituals with astrological insights, Chhath Puja stands out as one of the most significant festivals in India, reflecting the rich cultural heritage and the enduring belief in the divine's power over our lives.

 

In 2024, as Chhath Puja approaches, families will once again gather to honour this time-honoured tradition, seeking blessings for health, prosperity, and a brighter future for their children.

Yamuna’s Perennial Toxic Saga: A Critical Issue For Delhi

Yamuna's plight raises questions about accountability and the effectiveness of governmental commitments to environmental supervision

As the festive season approaches, the Yamuna river remains a focal point in the national capital, marred by extreme pollution despite repeated electoral promises. The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), led by former Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, has continually vowed to clean this river. Yet, just weeks before the annual Chhath Puja, toxic foam covers its surface, highlighting the grim reality of the situation.

Notably, soon after coming to power in 2015, Kejriwal had promised to clean the river and said, “We will revive Yamuna within five years.”

Then again in 2021, Kejriwal reiterated the promise to rejuvenate the Yamuna and said that he will take a dip in the river in February 2025. Then in 2020, Delhi’s then water minister Satyendra Jain claimed that the Delhi government was committed to revive the river within next three-four years. In November 2021, Kejriwal announced a six-point action plan to change the face of Yamuna. Even AAP’s Rajya Sabha Member of Parliament Swati Maliwal attacked the Delhi government and accused them of “making false promises of cleaning the river”.

Earlier this year, the Delhi government’s pollution control body planned to penalise chief engineers of sewage treatment plants that do not treat wastewater to prescribed standards, a major cause of pollution in the Yamuna. The national capital missed the December 2023 deadline to treat all sewage generated to the prescribed standards. The Delhi Jal Board (DJB) received a six-month extension but failed to meet the goal, according to monthly progress reports on Yamuna’s rejuvenation sent to the Jal Shakti ministry.

Meanwhile, Bhartiya Janata Party Delhi unit president Virendra Sachdeva took a dip in the Yamuna river earlier this week in Delhi to highlight the pollution. The Delhi BJP chief had invited people to Chhath Ghat to show the plight of Yamuna.

Sachdeva said that he took a dip to “atone for the sins of Kejriwal”. He further said: “The central government gave Rs 8,500 crore to the Delhi government in seven years for cleaning the Yamuna, but the money was embezzled by the AAP government. The BJP leader later reported breathing issues and skin irritation days after he took a dip in the heavily polluted toxic water of the Yamuna River. After experiencing health issues, the Delhi BJP chief slammed Kejriwal over his ‘failure’ to fulfill his promise of cleaning Yamuna by 2025.”

The spike in pollution levels in the Yamuna has mirrored the various political promises made over the years.

According to water quality data from 2021, the biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) level of the Yamuna rose dramatically from 11.0 mg at Pala (where it enters Delhi) to a whopping 127.0 mg at Asgarpur (where it exits). Recent data from 2024 suggests a similar trend, with BOD levels starting at 2.5 mg and spiking to an alarming 80.0 mg at Asgarpur.

Yamuna’s plight continues to be a critical issue in Delhi, raising pressing questions about accountability and the effectiveness of governmental commitments to environmental supervision.

[ad_1] GG News Bureau New Delhi, 21st Oct. Lt Governor VK Saxena on Monday raised concerns about the polluted state of the Yamuna River, sharing images of its toxic, froth-covered surface. He questioned those accountable for the river’s cleanliness, implying criticism towards previous assurances made by political leaders. Without naming anyone, Saxena addressed those who claimed to rejuvenate the Yamuna, questioning their commitment to making the river safe for public use. This remark was particularly pointed towards Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) convener Arvind Kejriwal, who had promised before the 2020 Assembly elections to cleanse the river and allow people to bathe in it by 2025. In July 2023, the Supreme Court halted a National Green Tribunal (NGT) order that appointed the Delhi LG as the chairman of a high-level committee for Yamuna rejuvenation. This decision came after the AAP government expressed concerns that the LG-led committee sidelined elected officials in the cleanup efforts. Sharing the images on social media, Saxena lamented the predicament of the Yamuna, which he described as the lifeline of Delhi for generations. He emphasized the river’s importance, especially during the “Chhath” festival, a significant event for Purvanchalis in Delhi, who worship the Sun god at water bodies. Saxena concluded by expressing his dismay at the river’s condition, stating that it was unbearable to witness the suffering of Delhi’s residents due to the pollution.
