No holiday, but Chhath is on

NEW DELHI: Upset with the government's decision not to declare public holiday on Chhath, BJP leaders said that the Congress is not considerate towards Poorvanchalis. Meanwhile, the three corporations have claimed that the preparations for Chhath Puja, which is on November 19, are in full swing.

"We got a letter from chief minister Sheila Dikshit saying that Chhath can't be declare a public holiday. The government is not thinking about lakhs of Poorvanchalis. It is their main festival," said Mahinder Nagpal, leader of the House, North corporation.

The BJP has been pushing for a holiday on Chhath as the Poorvanchali vote bank helped the party win the municipal elections in Congress bastion — the trans-Yamuna area.

Delhi BJP has decided to deploy 10,000 karsewaks at 160 ghats. The party will also deploy divers at all the important ghats for the safety of the people. On Saturday, Delhi BJP president Vijender Gupta inspected the ghats in the trans-Yamuna area. "There are no pucca ghats in the area. But the arrangements made by the corporations are satisfactory," said Gupta.

The civic agencies have constructed separate changing rooms for women and toilets at the ghats. Sanitation workers have been deployed to clean the ghats and the engineering department has been asked to level uneven surfaces at the ghats. Mayor of East and North corporations visited the ghats on Saturday and directed officials to finish the work by Sunday. Special arrangements are being made in municipal parks for the festival.
