Why is Chhath on Fri 11 Nov in Diffa?
Chhath · Sandhya Arghya is on Fri 11 Nov: Shashthi touches sunset on neither evening, and the earlier day is taken.
Sunset at 17:40 is Panchami; Shashthi begins at 19:12. Shashthi: 19:12 to 17:15 Sat.
Shashthi ended at 17:15; sunset at 17:39 is Saptami. Shashthi: 19:12 Fri to 17:15.
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 19:12 on Fri 11 Nov to 17:15 on Sat 12 Nov, between the two evenings’ sunset, touching neither. The Nirnayasindhu then takes the earlier day: Fri 11 Nov. No text giving Chhath · Sandhya Arghya’s time was found; sunset is Tithika’s convention.
