Why is Holika Dahan on Tue 19 Mar in Diffa?
Holika Dahan is on Tue 19 Mar: Purnima touches pradosha that evening, and no other.
Pradosha is Chaturdashi; Purnima begins at 21:33. Purnima: 21:33 to 18:56 Tue.
Purnima holds pradosha only until 18:56; then Pratipada. Purnima: 21:33 Mon to 18:56.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+1). Band: the tithi. Box: Pradosha. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
Holika is burnt in pradosha, the 3 muhurtas after sunset, outside bhadra. Purnima runs from 21:33 on Mon 18 Mar to 18:56 on Tue 19 Mar, so it touches only Tuesday’s pradosha (18:20–20:43).
