The partial solar eclipse or Surya Grahan on October 25 marks the last solar eclipse of the year.
The eclipse will be visible from parts of Europe, Northern Africa and large parts of western and central Asia.
Most of India should be able to view the solar eclipse, apart from some parts in the Northeast.
During a solar eclipse, the Moon passes between the Sun and the Earth, stopping some of the Sun’s light from reaching our planet.
Typically, there are three kinds of solar eclipses—total solar eclipse, annular eclipse and partial solar eclipse
During an annular solar eclipse, the Moon will not fully cover the Sun but will leave an edge visible.
During a partial solar eclipse, like the one happening on October 25, the Sun will be partly covered by the Moon as it passes in front of it.
The partial solar eclipse will begin at 2:28 PM IST and the maximum eclipse will be at 4:30 PM. The table below shows at what time the eclipse will start and have its maximum in different Indian cities.
