Do you also think the morning starts at 6 AM (Which also means Tithi times for your place. the Sun always rises at 6 AM)? The answer is no.

Hence for all festival observance dates calculation the day taken is from one As explained earlier, the noon, the midnight and other parts of the day cannot be calculated as per Sunrise to another sunrise. fixed clock time.
