Why is Karwa Chauth on Thu 29 Oct in Gilgit?

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

Moonrise at 18:31 is Tritiya; Chaturthi begins at 00:37 Thu.

Chaturthi at moonrise, 19:30. Chaturthi: 00:37 to 21:40.

One row per day, on one clock (PKT). Band: the tithi. Line: Moonrise. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.

The Karwa Chauth fast is broken at moonrise. Chaturthi runs from 00:37 on Thu 29 Oct to 21:40 on Thu 29 Oct, so it holds moonrise only on Thu 29 Oct, at 19:30.

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.
