Why is Rath Yatra on Fri 12 Jul in Baoding?
Rath Yatra is on Fri 12 Jul: Dwitiya holds sunrise that day.

Dwitiya at sunrise, 05:02. Dwitiya: 16:38 Thu to 14:27.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+8). Band: the tithi. Line: Sunrise. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
Rath Yatra follows the tithi at sunrise. Dwitiya runs from 16:38 on Thu 11 Jul to 14:27 on Fri 12 Jul, so it holds sunrise only on Fri 12 Jul, at 05:02. No text giving Rath Yatra’s time was found; sunrise is Tithika’s convention.
