Surya Grahan 2022: The world is set to witness the last solar eclipse of 2022 and the partial solar eclipse will be visible from several parts of India. After the festival of lights, Diwali was celebrated on October 24, the surya grahan will be visible today – October 25. People from Europe, the Urals and Western Siberia, Central Asia and Western Asia, and from the northeast of Africa will be able to view the solar eclipse. A partial solar eclipse occurs in the polar regions of the Earth when the centre of the Moon’s shadow misses the Earth. Even if it’s for a short while, a solar eclipse should not be viewed with the naked eye. Except for the few states of the northeastern region, most of the states in India will be able to witness this solar eclipse. The ending of the eclipse will be in progress after sunset in India and hence not visible.
Meanwhile, n account of the eclipse, doors of Shri Badrinath-Kedarnath temple will remain closed on October 25 on the solar eclipse, said the temple committee. After the eclipse, the pujas will be performed in the evening, the Chief Administrative Officer of the Shri Kedarnath-Badrinath Temple Committee added.
