About Bhopal Panchang
Bhopal, the City of Lakes and Madhya Pradesh's state capital, combines a large Muslim population with a significant Hindu community that follows Malwa Panchang traditions for all auspicious activities. The Bhopal Panchang aligns with central Indian Hindu conventions — Vikram Samvat calendar, Purnimanta months, and standard North Indian muhurta calculations. At 77.41°E, Bhopal's sunrise is almost identical to Delhi, making Bhopal Rahu Kaal and Choghadiya nearly synchronous with the national capital. Navratri Durga Puja, Diwali, and Makar Sankranti are the festivals where Bhopal residents most frequently consult the Panchang for precise muhurta.
Why Location Matters for Panchang
All Panchang time divisions — Rahu Kaal, Choghadiya, Hora, and Abhijit Muhurta — are calculated from the local sunrise at your exact coordinates. Bhopal is located at 23.26°N latitude and 77.41°E longitude. This means every time-sensitive Panchang element is specifically calibrated for Bhopal residents.
Rahu Kaal (the inauspicious period associated with Rahu) lasts approximately 90 minutes each day, with its timing varying by day of the week. For Bhopal, these timings are calculated from the exact local sunrise, which differs from Delhi by approximately 1 minutes due to longitude difference.
