Why is Pitru Paksha begins on Fri 9 Sep in Diffa?
Pitru Paksha begins is on Fri 9 Sep: Pratipada holds all of aparahna that day, and no other.
Aparahna is Purnima; Pratipada begins at 03:20 Fri.
Pratipada holds all of aparahna, 13:20–15:47. Pratipada: 03:20 to 23:45.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+1). Band: the tithi. Box: Aparahna. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
The first shraddha of Pitru Paksha is done in aparahna, the fourth fifth of the day. Pratipada runs from 03:20 on Fri 9 Sep to 23:45 on Fri 9 Sep, so only Friday’s aparahna (13:20–15:47) falls within it. No text giving Pitru Paksha begins’s time was found; aparahna is Tithika’s convention.
