When is Vasant Panchami 2015 in Diffa?
Vasant Panchami Saraswati Puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Vasant Panchami on Sat 24 Jan in Diffa?
Vasant Panchami is on Sat 24 Jan: Panchami holds all of purvahna that morning, and no other.
Panchami holds all of purvahna, 06:36–12:21. Panchami: 00:45 to 22:06.
Panchami ended at 22:06 Sat; purvahna is Shashthi.
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 00:45 on Sat 24 Jan to 22:06 on Sat 24 Jan, so only Saturday’s purvahna (06:36–12:21) falls within it. No text giving Vasant Panchami’s time was found; purvahna is Tithika’s convention.
