Dussehra Aparahna puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Dussehra on Sat 9 Oct in Gilgit?
Dussehra is on Sat 9 Oct: Dashami holds all of aparahna that day, and no other.
Dashami holds all of aparahna, 12:59–15:17. Dashami: 08:32 to 11:11 Sun.
Dashami ended at 11:11; aparahna is Ekadashi. Dashami: 08:32 Sat to 11:11.
One row per day, on one clock (PKT). 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 08:32 on Sat 9 Oct to 11:11 on Sun 10 Oct, so only Saturday’s aparahna (12:59–15:17) falls within it.
