Not in Rajkot?
2 h 37 min, starting at sunset.
Nirnaya Sindhu quotes Vyasa: “trimuhūrtaḥ pradoṣaḥ syād bhānāv astaṃ gate sati”, that is, Pradosh is the three muhurtas after the sun has set. Three of the night's fifteen muhurtas are its first fifth, worked out from this city's own sunset.
Why Pradosh begins at 6:02 PM in Rajkot
Sunset, and with it Pradosh, comes 37 minutes later in Rajkot than in New Delhi (5:25 PM). Rajkot lies 6.4° west of New Delhi. The Earth turns through that in about 26 minutes, so on longitude alone the sun sets 26 minutes later here. Rajkot's latitude adds another 11 minutes: it changes the length of the day and of the night.
