New Delhi, Sept. 30 -- Chief minister Rekha Gupta on Monday announced Chhath Puja this year will be celebrated on both sides of Yamuna and that no immersion of puja material will be allowed. "Chhath Puja will be organised along both banks of Yamuna from Palla in the north to Okhla in the south with full facilities for devotees wherever suitable riverbanks are available. Ghats will get a major upgrade and we have directed officials to prepare every stretch of Yamuna for Chhath celebrations," CM Gupta said during a meeting at the Delhi Secretariat, also attended by cabinet ministers Ashish Sood and Kapil Mishra. "The capital hosts rituals at 929 sites, and the government will make complete arrangements at each of them," she said.
