Why is Karwa Chauth on Sun 29 Oct in Diffa?

Karwa Chauth is on Sun 29 Oct: Chaturthi holds moonrise that night.

Moonrise at 18:32 is Tritiya; Chaturthi begins at 03:58 Sun.

Chaturthi at moonrise, 19:20. Chaturthi: 03:58 to 06:29 Mon.

One row per day, on one clock (UTC+1). Band: the tithi. Line: Moonrise. Dark strip: night.

The Karwa Chauth fast is broken at moonrise. Chaturthi runs from 03:58 on Sun 29 Oct to 06:29 on Mon 30 Oct, so it holds moonrise only on Sun 29 Oct, at 19:20.

The rule

Kartika Krishna Chaturthi (purnimanta) · Ashwina Krishna Chaturthi (amanta)

The Karwa Chauth fast is broken at moonrise.

Smarta: the night whose moonrise Chaturthi holds; when it touches both, the earlier; when neither, the later (Dharmasindhu).
Vaishnava: the Smarta day.
