Banks will remain closed for Chhath Puja celebrations in several Indian states. In Bihar and Jharkhand, banks are closed on both days of the festival, while in West Bengal, they are closed only on the first day. The holiday applies exclusively to these regions; banking operations continue as usual elsewhere in India. Devotees celebrate Chhath Puja with prayers to the Sun God for prosperity and health. Despite physical branch closures, customers can access most services through ATMs and digital platforms.
