Hello Prof Kochhar!
Doesn't the difference, albeit small, mean that, in time,
Jupiter's position in the month of Magh (January/February), when the
Mela is held, would drift out to the next rashi? This appears to be
validated by the following web site, which gives dates of Jupiter's
transit through all twelve rashis for the years 1902 to 2099:

Jupiter was in the rashi of Vrishabha (Taurus) for the 2001 Maha Kumbh
at Prayag (Allahabad) and will return to the same rashi for the 2013
Kumbh, as it will, going forward in steps of 12 years, for 2025, 2037
and 2049 but will move out to the next rashi of Mithuna (Gemini) for
2061. Similar drift can also be seen going back in steps of 12 years.
Is this information correct?
Am I reading this right, or am I missing something crucial here?
Kind Regards,
Jamal
