About Bhubaneswar Panchang
Bhubaneswar, the "Temple City of India", has over 700 ancient temples and a deeply observant Odia Hindu population where Panchang governs daily temple rituals, Rath Yatra (Puri), and all major festivals. The Odia Panjika tradition follows the Amanta month system similar to South India, with Maha Vishubha Sankranti (Odia New Year) being the most Panchang-observed event. At 85.82°E, Bhubaneswar's sunrise is about 34 minutes before Delhi, placing it in the same time zone as Patna and Varanasi for Panchang purposes.
