 The Congress party slammed the Delhi government's decision to ban the celebrations of Chhath Puja at public places. The Congress Party also demanded a new order to allow the Puja celebrations on November 7. Delhi Pradesh Congress Committee (DPCC) president Anil Kumar Chaudhary said, "The government should allow people to celebrate Chhath Puja at public places in Delhi. When Ramlila and Dussehra can be organised with certain conditions, then Chhath Puja can also be conducted with COVID-19 protocols in place." He continued, " The owner might be hesitant to allow a tenant to celebrate Chhath puja. In such a situation, the government should allow people to celebrate the festival at public places."

Large numbers of Congress workers had gathered outside Delhi CM Kejriwal residence today to protest against the CM orders to ban 'Chhath Puja' at public places in Delhi this year.

Anil Chaudhary added, “The government should allow people to celebrate Chhath puja at open places on Yamuna Banks, Bawana Munak (canal) and Bhalswa lake. People could perform rituals while following the social distancing norms, but the government has banned the celebration of Chhath Puja." The party said that the Congress government in Delhi has always allowed the celebration of such festivals, but the Aam Aadmi Government is cheating the Purvanchalis and depriving them of their rights
