Aaj Ka Panchang, July 24, 2025: Tithi, Vrat, Shubh Muhurat & Rahu Kaal Today
Aaj Ka Panchang, July 24, 2025: Today is the combination of Amavasya Tithi and Thursday, which is considered to be extremely important from a religious and spiritual point of view. Amavasya, especially in the month of Ashadha, is best for Pitru Tarpan, Daan, and Shradh rituals. This date is considered to be good for the peace of the soul of ancestors, the removal of defects, and spiritual purification. Actions like fasting, meditation, and holy bathing give auspicious results on this day.
Today's Nakshatra is Pushya, which is called the best of all Nakshatras and the 'King of Nakshatras". Work done in Pushya Nakshatra, especially religious or economic, brings stability and prosperity. Yoga Vajra, which is till 07:28:46 am, will be followed by the entry of another yoga.
Vajra Yoga requires restraint and discretion, as this time can be full of slightly conflicting energy. The Moon is in Cancer today, which is associated with emotional depth, family attachment, and compassion. In such a situation, it will be necessary to maintain emotional balance. The season is the rainy season, which is believed to purify both nature and mind.
Sunrise today will be at 06:08:37 AM and sunset at 07:25:51 PM. Moonrise will be at 05:19:34 AM and moonset at 07:21:50 PM. As per the Hindu calendar, this day falls under Shaka Samvat 1947 and Vikram Samvat 2082.
In the Amamant system, this is the last day of Ashadha month, and as per the Purnimant system, Shravan month is about to begin. Hence, this day is also seen as a transition period, marking the end of one chapter and the beginning of a new one.
Inauspicious Muhurats today are Rahu Kaal from 02:26:53 PM to 04:06:32 PM, Yamaganda Kaal from 06:08:37 AM to 07:48:16 AM, and Gulik Kaal from 09:27:55 AM to 11:07:34 AM — it would be beneficial to postpone important tasks during these times. At the same time, Abhijeet Muhurat from 12:21 PM to 01:13 PM will be especially auspicious for auspicious works.
Overall, today is a good day for meditation, charity, and introspection. Performing Tarpan, Deepdaan, or Puja for ancestors will give auspicious results. Some caution is necessary at the beginning of new work, but every step taken with purity of mind, determination, and spiritual direction will prove to be especially fruitful today.

Didnt bathe for months, quenched thirst eating ice: Kargil braveheart recalls
Shimla, Jul 26 (PTI) 'We did not bathe or shave for three months and on several occasions quenched our thirst by eating ice," recalled braveheart Naik Praveen on the 26th anniversary of Kargil Vijay Diwas Saturday. Praveen, from the 10 JAK Rifles, said that on the evening of May 4, 1999, there were sudden orders to move to the Drass sector with only rifles as the climb was steep. 'After travelling all night, when we reached our destination the next morning, the village in Drass sector was empty and suddenly the Pakistani army started heavy bombing. Two soldiers from our group were martyred while two were injured," said Praveen, a resident of Sanjauli in Shimla, at a district-level function organized on the occasion. 'Food used to arrive at night," he added. Pakistan had captured several hill tops including the Tiger Hill which is a prominent peak in Drass sector in Kargil, known for its strategic military importance as the peak offers a commanding view of the Srinagar-Leh highway. Retired Subedar Major Diwakar Dutt Sharma (19 JAK Rifles) said the temperatures ranged from minus 30 to 40 degrees and the hills occupied by the enemy were very steep. It was not possible to climb in one day and we had to stop at intervals, he said. Then we attacked the enemy from behind when they had no clue, he added. 'We lost many of our soldiers in this war. But the Indian Army hoisted the flag of victory as everyone decided to take revenge for the martyrdom of our comrades and defeated the enemy during the Kargil war," said Subedar Major Ram Lal Sharma who was posted at the G unit along with his cousin Diwakar Dutt Sharma. The Indian Army on July 26, 1999, announced the successful culmination of Operation Vijay, declaring victory over Pakistan after a nearly three-month-long war on the icy heights of Kargil in Ladakh. The day is observed as Kargil Vijay Diwas. Deputy Commissioner Anupam Kashyap said that the ex-servicemen who were part of the Kargil war will share their experiences in schools so that the feeling of patriotism can be awakened in students. He said that about 20 per cent of the soldiers killed in the Kargil war were from Himachal Pradesh. Seven ex-servicemen from Shimla district were also honoured on the occasion.
