Grand Chhath Ghat Inaugurated Along Munak Canal in Delhi

New Delhi, November 12 (Daily Kiran) : On November 12, Nitin Naveen, the national president of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), inaugurated an impressive 11-kilometer Chhath Ghat along both banks of the Munak Canal. This event took place in the presence of Chief Minister Rekha Gupta and marks a significant development for the eastern Uttar Pradesh community in Delhi.

The inauguration fulfills a long-standing demand from the local community, as the Delhi government has taken substantial steps to provide better facilities for Chhath devotees and pilgrims. Special preparations have been made this year for the Chhath Mahaparv, ensuring that families can celebrate the festival with respect and comfort.

During the inauguration, Naveen expressed that this day holds special significance for him. With the Chhath Mahaparv starting tomorrow, he noted that Chief Minister Rekha Gupta has gifted a major development to the Chhath devotees and residents of eastern Uttar Pradesh. The newly developed ghat along the Munak Canal represents a transformative change for the community.

Reflecting on past administrations, Naveen criticized previous governments for focusing on personal luxuries rather than public welfare. He stated they were more concerned with building lavish monuments than ensuring the cleanliness and safety of the Yamuna River. In contrast, he emphasized that the current government is committed to providing essential services to the poor, from health schemes to housing, while also striving to keep the Yamuna clean and beautiful.

Naveen further addressed the historical skepticism towards Indian traditions and culture, asserting that some individuals even questioned the existence of Lord Rama. He remarked that for such people, sacred rivers like the Ganges and Yamuna might seem insignificant, but for many, they represent deep faith and devotion. He highlighted that Chhath Puja symbolizes purity, cleanliness, and community spirit, fostering unity across social divides.

He concluded by stating that under Prime Minister Modi‘s leadership, all Indian festivals and cultural traditions, including Chhath Puja, are celebrated with grandeur and enthusiasm. This sacred festival, he noted, is a time for honoring nature and worshiping the Sun God, offering prayers at both sunset and sunrise.

Naveen expressed confidence that just as Prime Minister Modi has fulfilled commitments made by his government, the Delhi government is also diligently working to realize its promises over the past 20 months.
