Why is Chhath on Thu 6 Nov in Diffa?
Chhath · Sandhya Arghya is on Thu 6 Nov: Shashthi holds sunset that evening.
Sunset at 16:50 is Panchami; Shashthi begins at 19:04.
Shashthi at sunset, 16:49. Shashthi: 19:04 Wed to 21:32.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC). Band: the tithi. Line: Sunset. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
The evening arghya is offered at sunset. Shashthi runs from 19:04 on Wed 5 Nov to 21:32 on Thu 6 Nov, so it holds sunset only on Thu 6 Nov, at 16:49. No text giving Chhath · Sandhya Arghya’s time was found; sunset is Tithika’s convention.
