Why is Rama Navami on Tue 4 Apr in Diffa?
Rama Navami is on Tue 4 Apr: Navami holds all of madhyahna that day, and no other.
Navami holds all of madhyahna, 10:58–13:26. Navami: 06:50 to 05:34 Wed.
Navami ended at 05:34; madhyahna is Dashami.
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 06:50 on Tue 4 Apr to 05:34 on Wed 5 Apr, so only Tuesday’s madhyahna (10:58–13:26) falls within it. Every reading takes that day.
