Why is Diwali on Tue 28 Oct in Diffa?
Diwali · Lakshmi Puja is on Tue 28 Oct: Amavasya touches pradosha that evening, and no other.
Lakshmi Puja muhurat: pradosha, 15:44–18:12. Within it Vrishabha, a fixed (sthira) lagna, rises in the east from 16:46 to 18:12.
Chaturdashi until 16:46, inside pradosha; then Amavasya. Amavasya: 16:46 to 13:28 Wed.
Amavasya ended at 13:28; pradosha is Pratipada. Amavasya: 16:46 Tue to 13:28.

Lakshmi Puja is done in pradosha, the 3 muhurtas after sunset. Amavasya runs from 16:46 on Tue 28 Oct to 13:28 on Wed 29 Oct, so it touches only Tuesday’s pradosha (15:44–18:12). Every reading takes that day.
