Why is Durga Ashtami on Sun 13 Oct in Diffa?

Durga Ashtami is on Sun 13 Oct: Ashtami holds sunrise that day.

Sunrise at 03:59 is Saptami; Ashtami begins at 15:55.

Ashtami at sunrise, 03:59. Ashtami: 15:55 Sat to 15:51.

One row per day, on one clock (UTC+0:30). Band: the tithi. Line: Sunrise. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.

Durga Ashtami follows the tithi at sunrise. Ashtami runs from 15:55 on Sat 12 Oct to 15:51 on Sun 13 Oct, so it holds sunrise only on Sun 13 Oct, at 03:59. No text giving Durga Ashtami’s time was found; sunrise is Tithika’s convention.

The rule

Ashwina Shukla Ashtami

Durga Ashtami follows the tithi at sunrise.

Smarta
the day Ashtami holds at sunrise: Tithika’s convention, since no text gives the time.
Vaishnava
the Smarta day.
