The Story Behind Chhath Puja

It is believed that the son of the Sun God, Karna was the first one to perform this Chhath Puja festival when he ruled over the Anga Desh, now in Bihar, and then it was also performed by Draupadi and the Pandavas for resolving their problems and to regain their lost kingdom. On this Hindu festival, the kings used to call the pandits and perform the puja to get rid of their troubles and also to gain liberation. As per another legend, Lord Rama and Sita performed this puja after returning from their 14-year exile on the sixth day of the kartik month, and the tradition is being followed to this day on the same date.
