Delhi Government Enhances Facilities for Chhath Festival, Says BJP Leader Pradeep Bhandari
BJP leader Pradeep Bhandari praises Delhis facilities for Chhath festival, emphasizing cleanliness and support for devotees.
New Delhi, November 15 (Daily Kiran) : The Chhath Mahaparv is being celebrated across several states, including Bihar, New Delhi, and Uttar Pradesh. On the third day of the festival, many leaders from the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) extended their best wishes to the devotees.
BJP leader Pradeep Bhandari expressed his gratitude while at the Aastha Kunj Ghat in Delhi. “I feel fortunate to be here, where our brothers and sisters from Purvanchal are celebrating this grand festival dedicated to Chhathi Maiya,” he stated.
In a conversation with the media, Bhandari highlighted the improved facilities provided by the Delhi government for the festival. “If you talk to any Purvanchal resident in Delhi, they will agree that the state government has ensured better arrangements for celebrating Chhath. Every ghat in Delhi has received careful attention to cleanliness. The Delhi government respects our brothers and sisters from Purvanchal,” he remarked.
Bhandari did not hold back in criticizing the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), claiming they are struggling since losing power. “The corrupt AAP is floundering like a fish out of water. Kejriwal and his minor supporters are distanced from power, and since they have seen the Delhi government working for the public’s development, they have resorted to spreading lies,” he asserted.
Meanwhile, Delhi government minister Kapil Mishra also participated in the festival by offering arghya. In an interview, he described the beautiful scene along the Yamuna River during the worship of Chhathi Maiya. “Look at this stunning view of the Yamuna and the extraordinary worship of Chhathi Maiya. The Chief Minister offered arghya at Sonia Vihar, and it was a truly beautiful sight. Chhath Puja in Delhi is becoming more divine and grand every year,” he noted.
In Uttar Pradesh, BJP MLA Jai Mangal Kanaujia shared his personal connection to the festival. “In previous years, I would come here with my mother. Since she is no longer with us, I now come with my wife and family, carrying the ‘daliya’ (basket of worship materials) on my head. May Chhathi Maiya’s blessings always be with everyone in the region and the entire Maharajganj assembly area. I pray for the well-being and prosperity of our fasting sisters and mothers,” he said.
