What Pradosh is and how it is kept: the Pradosh 2028 guide.
Pradosh in Kathmandu: questions
+ How many Pradosh days are there in 2028 in Kathmandu?
25, computed for Kathmandu's coordinates and the Asia/Kathmandu time zone. The first falls on Sun, Jan 9 and the last on Fri, Dec 29.
+ Are Kathmandu Pradosh dates the same as in India?
Not always. A tithi starts at the same instant everywhere, but the sunset that decides the day happens at a different moment in Kathmandu. In 2028, 25 of 25 dates match the Indian (Ujjain) date, 0 fall a day earlier and 0 a day later.
+ How is the date decided?
This calendar uses the local day on which the Trayodashi tithi is in force at sunset. 2 of this year's 25 entries for Kathmandu are flagged because of that. Local temples may follow a particular sampradaya's rule, so check with them for ritual purposes.
+ How accurate are these times?
Times come from truncated astronomical series and should fall within a few minutes of a full ephemeris. Near a boundary a published panchanga may assign a different day. They are for planning practice, not for precise ritual muhurta.
