New Delhi: The great festival of Chhath Puja begins after Diwali on the Shashti Tithi of Shukla Paksha of the Kartik month. It is not a single-day festival but it lasts for complete four days. 

The festival of Chhath Puja begins with a holy bath and ends with offering Arghya to the rising sun. Preparation for this puja starts before Diwali. 

A 'nirjala' fast is observed throughout, this is considered to be the most difficult fast. You can understand the importance of Chhath Puja from the fact that it is celebrated in many big and small cities of the country including Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, Delhi and Mumbai.
