Delhi Inaugurates 11-Km Chhath Ghat, Expands Festival Facilities and Traffic Measures

The project, costing over Rs 115 crore, transformed a neglected canal stretch into a religious and recreational space. The Delhi government is also setting up over 1,400 ghats citywide and has announced traffic restrictions and diversions to manage the expected large turnout during the festival.
