Why is Chhath on Thu 11 Nov in Diffa?
Chhath · Sandhya Arghya is on Thu 11 Nov: Shashthi holds sunset that evening.
Sunset at 17:40 is Panchami; Shashthi begins at 01:16 Thu.
Shashthi at sunset, 17:40. Shashthi: 01:16 to 02:34 Fri.
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 01:16 on Thu 11 Nov to 02:34 on Fri 12 Nov, so it holds sunset only on Thu 11 Nov, at 17:40. No text giving Chhath · Sandhya Arghya’s time was found; sunset is Tithika’s convention.
