Pappu Mallick

Gangtok, November 01: Chhath Puja is celebrated here at Thakur Bari Gangtok like other parts of the nation.  The Ghat was decorated with light and other decorative items by the Bihari Community of Gangtok area. The Bihari Jagaran Manch Gangtok informed that we are observing this Chhath puja by keeping fasting since four days back which will be concluded tomorrow morning. This year we did not celebrate Chhath Puja in a grand way due to the recent earthquake. He gave good wishes on the occasion of Chhath Puja to the residents of Gangtok as well as peoples of the state. He also informed that we will be praying for the victims of the recent 9/18 Earthquakes in state of Sikkim.
