As it is summer in the east the sun rise is happening by 4 am in the morning.

Dr Souvik Chatterji @sathviksouvik (23235) 10 Jun 23

In the East the sun rise happens early. These days the diurnal range is increasing. Days are longer. Nights are shorter. So the sun rise is happening by 4 am. I love to watch the sunrise even in urbanized cities.
