Locals dig temporary ponds for Chhath Puja in Delhi's Badarpur

The 'Chhath Puja' celebrations are in full swing across the country.

Meanwhile, a group of devotees in Delhi's Badarpur dug temporary ponds on a vacant plot of land for 'Chhath Puja' rituals.

A local said, "It is not right to gather in large numbers amid COVID-19.

So, we are doing this." Delhi government has banned community 'Chhath Puja' celebrations at ghats this year in view of COVID-19 pandemic.
