About the time in Paragala
Paragala follows the civil time used across its region of Sri Lanka; there is no separate local reckoning inside the city.
Paragala runs on Asia/Colombo, which puts the city UTC +5:30 from Coordinated Universal Time right now. The clock at the top of this page is not copied from your device: it is anchored to our reference timestamp and re-rendered every second against the IANA time zone database, so it stays right even when a laptop or phone has quietly drifted.
Sunrise today lands at 06:02 and sunset at 06:19 local time, giving 12h 17m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (6.24, 80.53) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Paragala.
