Why is Rama Navami on Thu 2 Apr in Pāthardi?
Rama Navami is on Thu 2 Apr: Navami holds all of madhyahna that day, and no other.
Navami holds all of madhyahna, 11:18–13:46. Navami: 03:40 to 02:43 Fri.
Navami ended at 02:43; madhyahna is Dashami.
One row per day, on one clock (IST). 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 03:40 on Thu 2 Apr to 02:43 on Fri 3 Apr, so only Thursday’s madhyahna (11:18–13:46) falls within it. Every reading takes that day.
