Devotees, mostly women, took holy water on Tuesday, November 5, as Chhath Puja rituals began at Kalindi Kunj Chhath Ghat in Delhi. A video shared by news agency ANI shows people gathering near the beach and women performing rituals in a toxic foam-filled river. Earlier on Monday, the National Capital's Kalindi Kunj area saw toxic foam floating on the Yamuna River, raising concerns among residents and political leaders over pollution just ahead of Chhath Puja. Sewage water from several parts of the city, which is being drained into the Yamuna, is suspected to be the reason behind the foam's formation.Also Read | Chhath Puja: Celebrations to begin with ‘Nahay Khay’ on first day of festival.Chhath festival or Shashthi Puja is a big festival of faith celebrated on Shashthi of Kartik Shukla Paksha.
