Preparations for the Chhath festival have intensified in Bhilai, with special arrangements being made at riverbanks and other designated ghats to ensure the safety of devotees. Police personnel will remain deployed at the ghats, while trained divers will be stationed to handle any emergency during the religious rituals.

The festival has entered its next phase, with devotees observing Kharna today. On this day, worshippers observe a fast and prepare traditional offerings after completing the prescribed rituals. The preparations will culminate in the evening Arghya ceremony, when devotees will offer prayers to the setting Sun tomorrow.

Security and Safety Arrangements at Ghats

Authorities are focusing on crowd management and water safety, given the large number of devotees expected to gather at the ghats. Police deployment will help maintain order, while divers will remain on standby to respond quickly to any water-related emergency.

Arrangements are also being coordinated to facilitate the smooth conduct of the rituals and prevent overcrowding at bathing and worship areas.

Chhath is celebrated with great devotion, with devotees offering Arghya to the setting and rising Sun. The festival will continue with the morning Arghya on the following day, marking the completion of the main worship rituals.
