About this festival
Karva Chauth is a day-long fast kept by married women, mainly in North India, for the long life and well-being of their husbands. The fast runs from sunrise until the moon rises, so the moonrise time in your city is the most important number of the day.
How it is observed
- Sargi (a pre-dawn meal from the mother-in-law) is eaten before sunrise.
- Women gather in the evening for the Karva Chauth katha and puja with a karva (clay pot).
- After moonrise, the moon is seen through a sieve (chalni), arghya (water) is offered, and the husband's face is seen through the same sieve.
- The fast is broken with water and food offered by the husband.
Calculated for Fazilka, Punjab (30.40°N, 74.03°E) with a flat horizon. Behind buildings or hills the moon can appear a few minutes later.

Questions people ask
What time will the moon rise on Karva Chauth?
It depends on your city. Pick your city above for the exact time. Eastern cities see the moon earlier than western ones, often by 30â60 minutes.
Why can't I see the moon at the moonrise time?
Moonrise is when the moon crosses the flat horizon. Buildings, trees, haze or clouds can hide it for another 10â30 minutes, so look low in the east.
Can I break the fast if it is cloudy?
Many families break the fast at the calculated moonrise time, or after seeing the moon on a video call from another city. Follow your family tradition.
