Why is Holika Dahan on Wed 28 Feb in Sevan?
Holika Dahan is on Wed 28 Feb: Purnima touches pradosha that evening, and no other.
Pradosha is Chaturdashi; Purnima begins at 00:35 Wed.
Purnima holds pradosha only until 21:10; then Pratipada. Purnima: 00:35 to 21:10.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+4). Band: the tithi. Box: Pradosha. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
Holika is burnt in pradosha, the 3 muhurtas after sunset, outside bhadra. Purnima runs from 00:35 on Wed 28 Feb to 21:10 on Wed 28 Feb, so it touches only Wednesday’s pradosha (18:50–21:23).
