In kharagpur Mandirtalab in kharida is main place for chatpuja, but other area of Kharagpur like: JhinTalab in Bhagwanpur, Jhapatapur and Inda where local people do this ritual in local pond. From last few years people of this town went to Kansawati River for doing this ritual. Kansawati River is only taking fifteen minutes to reach by local train from giri maidan.

Main reason for this puja: Sun is main sole of every living being in earth, Human directly or indirectly depends on sun for their food and energy and for medicine. As per Hindu astrology Sun went in nich rashi on the other hand Saturn was become powerful (Saturn or Shani is son of Sun) in this period so people do this ritual to overcome from the negative energy .Read my astrology section to get information about sun effect in your sun sign.
