Practicing Muslims across the world would be fasting in the holy month of Ramadan, set to begin in May this year. Believers of the Islamic faith in India are no different, and they would also be abstaining from food and water between dawn to dusk throughout Ramadan, primarily referred to Ramzan in the Indian subcontinent. The iftar and sehri timings depend on the geographical location, and hence differ from city to city.

While sehri or suhoor refers to the pre-dawn meal consumed by Muslims before beginning their fast, iftar is the meal consumed post-dusk to break the fast. The onset of summer in India means early sunrises and late sunsets -- which in turn translates into long durations of fasting hours. Ramzan 2019 Dates: Likely Schedule of Islamic Holy Month Amid Lok Sabha Elections Controversy.
