Pakistan is set to witness four instances of “Suraj Grahan” or solar eclipse in 2023. The term “Suraj Grahan” is the Hindi phrase for a solar eclipse, a phenomenon that occurs when the moon comes between the Earth and the Sun, casting a shadow on Earth.
This can either block the Sun entirely or partially, depending on the type and location of the eclipse.
