Why is Chhath on Wed 29 Oct in Same?
Chhath · Sandhya Arghya is on Wed 29 Oct: Shashthi holds sunset that evening.
Sunset at 18:20 is Panchami; Shashthi begins at 22:17.
Shashthi at sunset, 18:20. Shashthi: 22:17 Tue to 20:40.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+3). Band: the tithi. Line: Sunset. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
The evening arghya is offered at sunset. Shashthi runs from 22:17 on Tue 28 Oct to 20:40 on Wed 29 Oct, so it holds sunset only on Wed 29 Oct, at 18:20. No text giving Chhath · Sandhya Arghya’s time was found; sunset is Tithika’s convention.
