Why is Durga Ashtami on Sat 12 Oct in Diffa?
Durga Ashtami is on Sat 12 Oct: Ashtami holds sunrise that day.
Sunrise at 05:59 is Saptami; Ashtami begins at 13:08.
Ashtami at sunrise, 05:59. Ashtami: 13:08 Fri to 10:56.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+1). Band: the tithi. Line: Sunrise. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
Durga Ashtami follows the tithi at sunrise. Ashtami runs from 13:08 on Fri 11 Oct to 10:56 on Sat 12 Oct, so it holds sunrise only on Sat 12 Oct, at 05:59. No text giving Durga Ashtami’s time was found; sunrise is Tithika’s convention.
