Why is Karwa Chauth on Sat 7 Oct in Diffa?

Karwa Chauth is on Sat 7 Oct: Chaturthi holds moonrise that night.

Moonrise at 19:43 is Tritiya; Chaturthi begins at 23:05.

Chaturthi at moonrise, 20:31. Chaturthi: 23:05 Fri to 00:21 Sun.

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 23:05 on Fri 6 Oct to 00:21 on Sun 8 Oct, so it holds moonrise only on Sat 7 Oct, at 20:31.

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).
