Bhadrapada 2084 — Frequently Asked Questions
When does Bhadrapada Maas 2084 start?
In North India (Purnimanta calendar) Bhadrapada runs from Wednesday, 16 August 2084 to Thursday, 14 September 2084. In Amanta-calendar regions it runs Friday, 1 September 2084 to Friday, 29 September 2084.
Why do Bhadrapada dates differ in North and South India?
Because the two regions follow different lunar calendars. In the Purnimanta calendar (North India) a month ends on the Purnima, so it starts about 15 days earlier than in Amanta. In the Amanta calendar (Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Goa, Maharashtra, Gujarat, Karnataka and Tamil Nadu) the month runs new-moon to new-moon.
