New Delhi: In the wake of the corona epidemic, Chhath puja has been banned in public places in Delhi. DDMA has issued a formal order in this regard. The order prohibits the holding of Chhath Puja at public places, grounds, temples and ghats. People have been urged to worship at home. At the same time, fairs, food stalls, hammocks, rallies, Zulus etc. will not be approved during the festive season. The DDMA order will remain in force till November 15.
Chhath Puja begins six days after the same Diwali. This time Chhath puja will begin from 8th November. Chhath Puja lasts for 4 days. DDMA has issued guidelines for all festivals coming up not only by Chhath but also by November. The order for Chhath Puja says that Chhath Puja will not be organized in public places, public grounds, river banks and temples. At the same time, people have been asked to perform Chhath Puja at home.
The decision has been taken in view of the continuous infected cases being reported from all over the country. Now that many people in the country are losing their lives every day due to corona, it is important that we protect ourselves and follow the Corona Protocol. Since a slight lapse can pose a big threat, it is important that we essentially use face masks and follow the social distancing.
