Why is Apara Ekadashi on Sat 20 May in Pāthardi?
Apara Ekadashi is on Sat 20 May: Ekadashi holds that sunrise and all of its arunodaya.
Dashami through all of arunodaya and at sunrise; Ekadashi begins at 10:11.
Ekadashi through all of arunodaya and at sunrise. Ekadashi: 10:11 Fri to 12:01.

Smartas test Ekadashi at sunrise: it holds sunrise on Sat 20 May only, at 05:52: Sat 20 May. Vaishnavas test arunodaya: Dashami ended at 10:11 Fri, before it (04:16–05:52).
Breaking the fast
Smarta · Vaishnava · Sun 21 May, 05:52–13:19
Parana is on Dwadashi, after its first quarter (harivasara) and before it ends. Dwadashi runs from 12:01 on Sat 20 May to 13:19 on Sun 21 May; harivasara ends at 18:21 Sat. So parana runs from sunrise on Sun 21 May, 05:52. Dwadashi runs past midday: the Dharmasindhu reports that many keep parana to the first 3 muhurtas after sunrise, until 08:29.
