PMC Completes Chhath Arrangements at 102 Arghya Sites Across City

The Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) has successfully made arrangements for the upcoming Chhath festival at 102 designated “arghya” sites throughout the city. The preparations have been carefully planned to ensure that citizens can celebrate this important festival with ease and devotion.

Chhath, observed primarily in Bihar and Uttar Pradesh, involves the worship of the Sun God and is marked by devotees offering prayers and arghya (offerings) to the setting and rising sun. The festival usually gathers a large number of participants, and it is essential to have suitable spaces to accommodate the rituals safely.

To facilitate the festivities, the PMC has ensured that these sites are well-maintained and accessible. Essential services such as water supply, lighting, and sanitation facilities are being put in place. Additionally, the corporation has arranged for crowd management to ensure a smooth and safe experience for all devotees.

As part of the PMCs preparations, volunteers and officials will be present at these locations to assist attendees and ensure that the celebrations run without any hitches. The PMC has urged the public to cooperate with the authorities and adhere to the guidelines for a harmonious celebration.

With the festival fast approaching, community members are encouraged to participate in the Chhath celebrations at these designated sites, embracing the spirit of togetherness and devotion that the festival represents.
