As Chhath Puja celebrations continue in Delhi, the Aam Aadmi Party accused the BJP-led government of creating an artificial pond with filtered water at Vasudev Ghat for Prime Minister Narendra Modi's ceremonial dip. The BJP dismissed the allegations as political frustration and defended efforts to clean the Yamuna for devotees. The controversy highlights tensions ahead of Bihar elections amid the festival's cultural significance for Delhi's Purvanchali community.
