During the Chhath Puja celebrations hosted by the Chhath Puja Welfare Society in West Vinod Nagar, an unusual scene unfolded as young girls performed on stage while audience members threw money onto the platform. This act has sparked a debate, with some questioning whether such displays align with the spiritual essence of Chhath Puja.

As videos of the event surface, some are calling it a “distortion of faith,” raising concerns that celebrations are becoming more focused on spectacle rather than reverence. For many attendees, however, the custom of throwing money has become a routine part of public events, seen as a way to honor performers. Nevertheless, voices within the community have suggested that the festival’s authenticity might be overshadowed by these actions.

As one observer noted, “Is such a display really necessary for the success of the program, or is it diminishing the festival's true spirit?” The scene has left the people divided, as questions over maintaining cultural and religious sanctity in public events continue to emerge.
