Why is Karwa Chauth on Sat 7 Oct in Upper Dir?

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

Moonrise at 18:56 is Tritiya; Chaturthi begins at 03:05 Sat.

Chaturthi at moonrise, 19:36. Chaturthi: 03:05 to 04:21 Sun.

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 03:05 on Sat 7 Oct to 04:21 on Sun 8 Oct, so it holds moonrise only on Sat 7 Oct, at 19:36.

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.
