**The app’s note for the day, in Bengali**

কার্তিক পূর্ণিমায় রাসযাত্রা। নবদ্বীপের রাস আর শান্তিপুরের ভাঙা রাস বিখ্যাত; কোচবিহারে বসে বড় রাসমেলা।

*On the day before the festival and on the day itself, the Today screen of the Ritupatra app carries this note.*

## How the day is chosen

The Purnima of Kartik, by the tithi at sunrise: the day whose sunrise falls in the tithi.

Traditional (Surya Siddhanta) panjikas, such as Gupta Press and Beni Madhab Sil, can differ in tithi times by hours, so in some years the day differs too. Their dates will appear here side by side once that school has been checked against a full printed year.

Tithi times are for Kolkata, in Indian Standard Time. Panjikas give Kolkata’s festival days for all of West Bengal. [Why another panjika may differ](https://ritupatra.app/support#en)
