When is Vasant Panchami 2011 in Diffa?
Vasant Panchami Saraswati Puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Vasant Panchami on Tue 8 Feb in Diffa?
Vasant Panchami is on Tue 8 Feb: Panchami holds all of purvahna that morning, and no other.
Purvahna is Chaturthi; Panchami begins at 12:36. Panchami: 12:36 to 15:09 Tue.
Panchami holds all of purvahna, 06:34–12:23. Panchami: 12:36 Mon to 15:09.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+1). Band: the tithi. Box: Purvahna. Light strip: day; dark strip: night. Sun: sunrise.
Saraswati Puja is done in purvahna, the first half of the day. Panchami runs from 12:36 on Mon 7 Feb to 15:09 on Tue 8 Feb, so only Tuesday’s purvahna (06:34–12:23) falls within it. No text giving Vasant Panchami’s time was found; purvahna is Tithika’s convention.
