Why is Chhath on Mon 26 Oct in Diffa?
Chhath · Sandhya Arghya is on Mon 26 Oct: Shashthi holds sunset that evening.
Sunset at 17:45 is Panchami; Shashthi begins at 22:31.
Shashthi at sunset, 17:45. Shashthi: 22:31 Sun to 23:53.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+1). Band: the tithi. Line: Sunset. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
The evening arghya is offered at sunset. Shashthi runs from 22:31 on Sun 25 Oct to 23:53 on Mon 26 Oct, so it holds sunset only on Mon 26 Oct, at 17:45. No text giving Chhath · Sandhya Arghya’s time was found; sunset is Tithika’s convention.
