About the time in Rajkot
Around 1,549,750 people live in Rajkot, and all of them keep the same civil time, so the reading above applies to the whole urban area — not just the city centre.
Rajkot sits at latitude 22.28, in the tropical band, so day length here swings only a little between midwinter and midsummer — today's 12h 45m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
The zone identifier Asia/Kolkata is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but Asia/Kolkata keeps pointing at Kolkata time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
