According to the Panchang, Punya Kaal (auspicious time) for Mithun Sankranti will begin at 5:23 AM and continue until 12:22 PM. There will be Maha Punya Kaal (highly auspicious time) from 5:23 AM to 7:42 AM. It is during this period that devotees can take a dip in holy rivers like the Ganga and perform acts of charity. In the event that such a facility is not available, they may bathe at home with water mixed with Ganga Jal (holy water from the Ganges).
