The pond at Mandar Hill is believed to be associated with the Chhath Puja, a prominent festival in Bihar. It's said that this pond holds mythological significance, as it's believed to be the spot where Lord Rama's wife, Sita, took a dip during her exile, and where she worshipped the sun god. During Chhath, devotees also perform rituals near water bodies like ponds, rivers, or lakes, and the Mandar Hill pond might hold similar importance for some worshippers during this festival.
