Why is Maha Shivratri on Wed 22 Feb in Ipameri?

Maha Shivratri is on Wed 22 Feb: Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha that night, and no other.

Nishitha is Trayodashi; Chaturdashi begins at 12:59 Wed.

Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha, 01:03 Thu–01:49 Thu. Chaturdashi: 12:59 to 11:39 Thu.

One row per day, on one clock (UTC−2). Band: the tithi. Box: Nishitha. Dark strip: night.

Shiva’s worship centres on nishitha, the midnight muhurta. Chaturdashi runs from 12:59 on Wed 22 Feb to 11:39 on Thu 23 Feb, so only Wednesday night’s nishitha (01:03 Thu–01:49 Thu) falls within it.

The rule

Phalguna Krishna Chaturdashi (purnimanta) · Magha Krishna Chaturdashi (amanta)

Shiva’s worship centres on nishitha, the midnight muhurta.

Smarta: the night whose nishitha Chaturdashi holds; when it touches both or neither, the later (Nirnayasindhu).
Vaishnava: the Smarta day.
