Why is Karwa Chauth on Wed 11 Oct in Diffa?

By the Dharmasindhu, Karwa Chauth is on Wed 11 Oct: Chaturthi touches moonrise on both nights and it takes the earlier.

Chaturthi at moonrise, 20:05. Chaturthi: 19:14 to 21:06 Thu.

Chaturthi at moonrise, 20:51. Chaturthi: 19:14 Wed to 21:06.

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 19:14 on Wed 11 Oct to 21:06 on Thu 12 Oct, touching moonrise on both nights. When it does, the Dharmasindhu takes the earlier day: Wed 11 Oct.

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.
