Why is Rama Navami on Tue 12 Apr in Diffa?
Rama Navami is on Tue 12 Apr: Navami holds all of madhyahna that day, and no other.
Madhyahna is Ashtami; Navami begins at 00:37 Tue.
Navami holds all of madhyahna, 10:56–13:24. Navami: 00:37 to 23:08.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+1). Band: the tithi. Box: Madhyahna. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
Rama’s birth is celebrated at madhyahna, the middle fifth of the day. Navami runs from 00:37 on Tue 12 Apr to 23:08 on Tue 12 Apr, so only Tuesday’s madhyahna (10:56–13:24) falls within it. Every reading takes that day.

- a Navami that Ashtami does not pierce, read at sunrise: Tithika’s convention.
