Nagpur, the Orange City, is the geographic center of India and Maharashtra's second capital — its central location at 79.09°E makes it a natural reference point where eastern and western Indian Panchang timings converge. Nagpur is home to Deekshabhoomi, one of Buddhism's most sacred sites, and a large Vidarbha Hindu community that observes Marathi Panchang traditions for all major festivals. At 21.15°N and 79.09°E, Nagpur's sunrise is approximately 7 minutes ahead of Delhi, giving it Rahu Kaal and Choghadiya windows that serve as a midpoint between western Maharashtra (Mumbai, Pune) and eastern India (Nagpur, Patna).
