Why this date?· तिथि निर्णय
Hindu date: The first sighting of the moon in Chaitra (Chandra Darshan), usually Chaitra Shukla Dwitiya.
It is kept on Chandra Darshan, the first evening the new moon is seen after Chaitra begins.
Dates are calculated for New Delhi. In other cities, and especially outside India, the tithi changes at a different local time, so a festival can fall a day earlier or later. Month names follow the Purnimanta calendar used in North India, where a month ends on Purnima. How we calculate
