Why is Dussehra on Sun 16 Oct in Pāthardi?
Dussehra is on Sun 16 Oct: Dashami holds all of aparahna that day, and no other.
Aparahna is Navami; Dashami begins at 16:46. Dashami: 16:46 to 19:17 Sun.
Dashami holds all of aparahna, 13:25–15:45. Dashami: 16:46 Sat to 19:17.
One row per day, on one clock (IST). Band: the tithi. Box: Aparahna. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
Dussehra’s rites are done in aparahna, the fourth fifth of the day. Dashami runs from 16:46 on Sat 15 Oct to 19:17 on Sun 16 Oct, so only Sunday’s aparahna (13:25–15:45) falls within it.
