Specific practices rather than a general mood.
The national version of a festival is usually a compromise. This is the actual picture.
The centre of the festival. Patna's ghats along the Ganga host lakhs of parvaitins, and the state effectively slows for four days. Chhath is the state's most widely observed festival, cutting across caste lines.
Observed with the same four-day structure on the Ganga and Sarayu in Varanasi, Gorakhpur, Allahabad and Ayodhya. The Purvanchali diaspora carries it everywhere.
Celebrated across Jharkhand with the same ghat rituals, and in Kolkata among the Bihari community, particularly at Babughat and the Ganga ghats organised for the festival.
In Delhi, the Yamuna ghats at ITO, Kalindi Kunj and Wazirabad are prepared for Chhath with temporary ponds for families who cannot reach a river. Mumbai has similar arrangements at Juhu and Powai.
Chhath is a major public holiday in Nepal's Terai region, with the same Nahay Khay, Kharna, Sandhya and Usha Arghya sequence on the Bagmati and other rivers.
