According to the demonstrators, the decision has caused “injured in the religious sentiment of Lakh Poralvanchalis who lives in Delhi”.
“Chhath Puja is the most important religious festival of Powrvanchalis, and this festival has received a niche slot in Delhi over the past years.” It was the Congress government that has made Chhath Ghats on the edge of Yamuna and in other water bodies.
For smooth and orderly behavior from the Government of Chhath, but the Government Arvind (Kejriwal) denied permits to hold Puja in a religious petition that it would spread Covid-19 infection, even though the government did not deny permits to hold other festivals, “he said.
He added That this decision numbered the government who treated the dieselers, the “contribution to Delhi’s development and progress had been very valuable, in stepmother mode”.
” The Arvind government has no problem liberalization of excise policy and opening liquor stores everywhere, and the crazy outlets of liquor outlets outside have violated all Covid protocols with impunity.
“But CM spread lies that Chhath Puja will spread covid pandemic without evidence,” Kumar said.
