Frequently asked questions about the Assamese Panjika 1960
How many festivals and vrats does the Assamese Panjika list in 1960?
The Assamese Panjika lists 247 dates in 1960, of which 203 are vrats. The first is Vinayaka Chaturthi on Saturday, 2 January 1960, and the last is Pradosh Vrat on Friday, 30 December 1960.
What are the main festival dates in the Assamese Panjika for 1960?
The first major observances of 1960 are:
- Bhogi / Lohri - Wednesday, 13 January 1960
- Makar Sankranti / Uttarayan / Pongal - Thursday, 14 January 1960
- Vasant Panchami - Monday, 1 February 1960
- Bhishma Ashtami - Thursday, 4 February 1960
- Maha Shivaratri - Thursday, 25 February 1960
- Holika Dahan - Saturday, 12 March 1960
Which month of 1960 has the most observances in the Assamese Panjika?
October 1960 is the fullest month with 25 dates, including Papankusha Ekadashi, Pradosh Vrat, Anvadhan, Ashwina Purnima Vrat, Sharad Purnima, Valmiki Jayanti, Ishti, Kalashtami.
Which traditional year does 1960 correspond to in the Assamese Panjika?
The Gregorian year 1960 spans Bhaskarabda 1366 – 1367. The traditional year does not begin on 1 January, so one Gregorian year usually covers the end of one era year and the start of the next.
Did 1960 have an Adhik Maas?
No. 1960 had twelve lunar months with no Adhik Maas, so its festival dates fall in their usual Gregorian window rather than being pushed later by an intercalary month.
Were there any eclipses in 1960?
1960 had 4 eclipses:
- 13 March 1960 - Total lunar eclipse (Chandra Grahan), not visible from India
- 27 March 1960 - Partial solar eclipse (Surya Grahan), not visible from India
- 5 September 1960 - Total lunar eclipse (Chandra Grahan), visible in India, so Sutak Kaal was observed
- 21 September 1960 - Partial solar eclipse (Surya Grahan), not visible from India
Sutak Kaal is observed only for an eclipse actually visible where you are, so 1 of these was kept in India.
Did Guru or Shani change sign in 1960?
Yes - 1 sign change among the slow grahas in 1960:
- Guru (Jupiter) entered Dhanu on 22 January 1960
Jupiter takes about a year to cross one sign and Saturn about two and a half, so these transits colour the whole year rather than a single week.
How do I see the tithi and nakshatra for a specific date in 1960?
Use the month grid above: pick a month from the selector, then tap any day to open its full panchang - tithi with start and end times, nakshatra, yoga, karana, sunrise and sunset, and the inauspicious periods (Rahu Kalam, Yamaganda, Gulika Kalam). Set your city in the box at the top first, because these timings are sunrise-based and shift with location. The Assamese Panjika opens on the current month.
About the Assamese Panjika
The Assamese Panjika (Bhaskarabda). Each day shows its tithi, nakshatra and festivals, with the Assamese solar month and the Bhaskarabda year.
Each day lists its tithi and paksha, the nakshatra, the weekday (vaar) and any festivals or vrats. Tap any day to see the full panchang for that date - tithi start and end times, nakshatra, yoga, karana, sunrise and sunset, and the inauspicious periods (Rahu Kalam, Yamaganda, Gulika Kalam). Use the month and year selectors to browse any year in the archive or plan ahead into the coming years.
This calendar names the tithi and festivals for each day. For sunrise, Rahu Kalam and muhurat windows on a chosen date, open the Panchang. Other regional calendars are on the Calendars index. Fast stories live under Vrat Katha.
