Chhath Puja in Hyderabad
Hyderabad is home to many families from Bihar, Jharkhand and eastern Uttar Pradesh, and Chhath is celebrated across the city at lakes, ponds and specially prepared water tanks in residential communities.

A Pandit can guide your family through the sankalp, Kharna and the arghyas, whether you gather at a lake with other families or at a tank arranged in your community.
वक्रतुण्ड महाकाय सूर्यकोटि समप्रभ।
निर्विघ्नं कुरु मे देव सर्वकार्येषु सर्वदा॥
Vakratuṇḍa mahākāya sūryakoṭi samaprabha, nirvighnaṁ kuru me deva sarvakāryeṣu sarvadā.
Why Hyderabad
Why families choose Hyderabad for Chhath Puja
Far from the Ganga, families in Hyderabad keep Chhath alive through community gatherings, and several associations organise arghya at local water bodies each year.
Gated communities increasingly set up temporary tanks so that elders and children can take part safely close to home.
Local traditions & timing
- Check with your association or the local authorities which lakes and ponds are open for Chhath arghya that year.
- Community tanks need to be planned and filled in advance; coordinate with the management committee.
- Crowds and traffic around popular lakes are heavy on the evening arghya; reach early.
Where it's performed
- A lake or pond where community Chhath gatherings are held
- A temporary water tank in your gated community
- Your home, for Kharna and the preparations
Planning tips
- Book early; Pandits familiar with Chhath rites are in demand in the city.
- Arrange soop, thekua, sugarcane and fruit early, as some items can be harder to find in Hyderabad.
- Share the venue and expected numbers so the Pandit can plan.
