Where will the eclipse be visible?

According to astrology, wherever the lunar eclipse is visible, its effect is considered to be there only. Therefore Sutak is also considered valid there.

Talking about the duration of this eclipse, it will start at 6.12 in the morning and will last till 10.17 in the morning. The effect of the second lunar eclipse will also not be seen in India.
