Rath Yatra Sunrise: what time?
Why is Rath Yatra on Thu 7 Jul in Diffa?
Rath Yatra is on Thu 7 Jul: Dwitiya holds sunrise that day.
Sunrise at 03:47 is Pratipada; Dwitiya begins at 08:51.
Dwitiya at sunrise, 03:47. Dwitiya: 08:51 Wed to 05:06.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+1). Band: the tithi. Line: Sunrise. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
Rath Yatra follows the tithi at sunrise. Dwitiya runs from 08:51 on Wed 6 Jul to 05:06 on Thu 7 Jul, so it holds sunrise only on Thu 7 Jul, at 03:47. No text giving Rath Yatra’s time was found; sunrise is Tithika’s convention.
