Kanpur Chhath Puja 2025 Sunrise Time: As the sacred festival of Chhath Puja 2025 approaches, Kanpur residents are making preparations to celebrate with massive faith and discipline. It is dedicated to Surya Dev (Sun God) and Chhathi Maiya, and the festival reflects purity, thankfulness, and devotion. From early morning rituals at the ghats to the Usha Arghya, every ritual conducted in Kanpur holds immense cultural and spiritual significance.
Chhath Puja in 2025 will be celebrated from Saturday, October 25 to Tuesday, October 28. The four days will be marked by Nahay-Khay, Kharna, Sandhya Arghya, and Usha Arghya each of which represents an important step in the fast and abstinence of the devotees followed by worship.
The Usha Arghya will be conducted early on Tuesday, October 28, 2025, as worshipers assemble pre-dawn to send prayers to the rising sun. This is the culmination of the fast and represents the offering of thanks for life, energy, and prosperity.
The auspicious Shashthi Tithi starts from October 27 and ends on October 28, 2025. Kanpur devotees adhere to these times for both Sandhya and Usha Arghya so that the puja is kept within the most sacred time to worship.
The ghats and houses are washed, and the offerings like thekua, sugarcane, and fruits are offered in bamboo baskets (soop). On Usha Arghya, devotees stand in water with their face towards the east to offer prayers with prasad after the sunrise ritual.
Paran is breaking the 36-hour fast after giving the last Usha Arghya. Devotees take the sacred prasad and water, ending the sacred Chhath Puja vrat.
The Kanpur Paran will be on Tuesday, October 28, 2025, right after the morning Usha Arghya. This ritual indicates the end of fasting and the start of blessings from Surya Dev and Chhathi Maiya.
