Frequently asked questions about the Punjabi Jantri 1954
How many festivals and vrats does the Punjabi Jantri list in 1954?
The Punjabi Jantri lists 268 dates in 1954, of which 214 are vrats. The first is Shani Pradosh Vrat on Saturday, 2 January 1954, and the last is Vinayaka Chaturthi on Wednesday, 29 December 1954.
What are the main festival dates in the Punjabi Jantri for 1954?
The first major observances of 1954 are:
- Bhogi / Lohri - Wednesday, 13 January 1954
- Makar Sankranti / Uttarayan / Pongal - Thursday, 14 January 1954
- Vasant Panchami - Sunday, 7 February 1954
- Bhishma Ashtami - Wednesday, 10 February 1954
- Maha Shivaratri - Wednesday, 3 March 1954
- Holika Dahan - Thursday, 18 March 1954
Which month of 1954 has the most observances in the Punjabi Jantri?
May 1954 is the fullest month with 27 dates, including Masik Shivaratri, Amavasya, Anvadhan, Darsha Amavasya, Ishti, Parashurama Jayanti, Akshaya Tritiya (Akha Teej), Vinayaka Chaturthi.
Which traditional year does 1954 correspond to in the Punjabi Jantri?
The Gregorian year 1954 spans Bikrami Samvat 2010 – 2011. 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 1954 have an Adhik Maas?
No. 1954 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 1954?
1954 had 5 eclipses:
- 5 January 1954 - Annular solar eclipse (Surya Grahan), not visible from India
- 19 January 1954 - Total lunar eclipse (Chandra Grahan), visible in India, so Sutak Kaal was observed
- 30 June 1954 - Total solar eclipse (Surya Grahan), visible in India, so Sutak Kaal was observed
- 16 July 1954 - Partial lunar eclipse (Chandra Grahan), visible in India, so Sutak Kaal was observed
- 25 December 1954 - Annular solar eclipse (Surya Grahan), not visible from India
Sutak Kaal is observed only for an eclipse actually visible where you are, so 3 of these were kept in India.
Did Guru or Shani change sign in 1954?
Yes - 2 sign changes among the slow grahas in 1954:
- Guru (Jupiter) entered Mithuna on 20 April 1954
- Guru (Jupiter) entered Karka on 9 September 1954
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 1954?
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 Punjabi Jantri opens on the current month.

The Punjabi Jantri (Bikrami reckoning, with the Nanakshahi year alongside). Each day shows its tithi, nakshatra and festivals, with the Punjabi solar month beginning on its Sangrand (Sankranti) day.
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.
