Chhath Puja is an important Hindu festival dedicated to the Sun God (Surya), and his wife, Chhathi Maiyya (Usha). Devotees offer prayers to these deities, expressing their gratitude for the life-sustaining energy of the Sun. The festival is celebrated for four days, following Diwali, and falls on the sixth day of the Kartikeya month in the Hindu calendar.

Devotees primarily from Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, Jharkhand, and Nepal celebrate Chhath Puja near water bodies like rivers, lakes, and dams, as the festival is free from idol worship. It’s a deeply spiritual observance, with no images or idols involved in the rituals.

The festival has historical significance and is mentioned in both the Ramayana and the Mahabharata. In the Ramayana, Sita performed Surya Shashthi (Chhath Puja) when Ramrajya was established, while in the Mahabharata, Kunti, the Pandavas' mother, performed the puja on the banks of the Ganga after their escape from Lakshagrih.
