Confusion regarding Diwali (When is Deepawali 2024)
This time there is a difference of opinion among astrologers regarding Diwali. Some astrologers believe that Diwali will be on October 31, while some say that this time Diwali will be celebrated on November 1, Friday. On this subject, Pt. Ganesh Mishra, an astrologer from Jagannath Puri, says that since the combination of Pradosh Kaal is being formed on October 31 on the Amavasya date, Diwali should be celebrated on this very day.
