Raksha Bandhan dates
Computed year by year from the Moon and the Sun. Each row shows the tithi the festival sits on and the lunar month in both the amanta and purnimanta reckonings, because the two name the same month differently during krishna paksha.
Also called: Rakhi, Shravana Purnima, Kajari Purnima

The rule
