Windows are computed for this city — the tithi decides which are valid, so they shift with your location and are not the Indian times. Abhijit and Rahu Kaal belong to the day itself rather than to the festival.
Sharad Navratri is the great nine-night festival of the Goddess in autumn, running from the first of the waxing moon in Ashwin to Maha Navami and closing with Dussehra. It is Durga Puja in Bengal and Golu in Tamil Nadu.
How it is observed
Ghatasthapana opens the nine nights; each honours a different form of Durga, and each has a traditional colour. Gujarat dances garba and dandiya every night of it.
