Why sunrise matters in Bokaro Steel
In the Hindu calendar the day begins at sunrise, not midnight — so the vara (weekday) changes at 5:10 am in Bokaro Steel, not at 12 am. A ritual performed before sunrise still belongs to the previous weekday.
Sunrise also anchors every timing on this site. Rahu Kaal, Yamagandam, Gulika Kaal, Choghadiya and Hora are all fractions of the interval between sunrise and sunset, so a few minutes’ error in sunrise shifts all of them. That is why these are computed from Bokaro Steel’s own latitude and longitude rather than a single reference city.
Today in Bokaro Steel the tithi is Navami and the nakshatra Swati.
