Computed for sunrise in this city from the positions of the Sun and Moon (Meeus lunar theory, Lahiri ayanamsa); tithi and nakshatra end times are accurate to about two minutes. Each festival is dated by the rule for its rite - the tithi running here at sunrise, midday, dusk, midnight or moonrise - so a local temple calendar can differ by a day.
