Interesting Facts About Chhath Puja

Chhath Puja is unique as it involves rigorous fasting and is one of the few Hindu festivals that does not require the presence of idols. Instead, devotees worship the sun by offering "Arghya" (water) at sunrise and sunset. The rituals are often accompanied by traditional songs that narrate stories of the Sun God and his significance in daily life.
