Chhath Puja is listed here as a Kartika Shukla Shashthi observance within the month-by-month Hindu calendar.
Why it is celebrated
It is celebrated to remember the sacred meaning associated with Kartika Shukla Shashthi and to renew devotion through the customs preserved by families, temples and regional communities.
A thoughtful way to observe
Follow your family or temple tradition, and confirm the local tithi and fasting window before a time-sensitive observance.
This is a festival and Panchang-highlight calendar for India, not a live daily Panchang. A tithi can span two Gregorian dates; the observed day, nakshatra, muhurta and fasting window vary by city, sampradaya and regional calendar. Confirm local timings before a time-sensitive observance.
