Rath Yatra is on Thu 21 Jun: Dwitiya holds sunrise that day.

Dwitiya ended at 01:44; sunrise at 04:53 is Tritiya.
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 00:36 on Thu 21 Jun to 01:44 on Fri 22 Jun, so it holds sunrise only on Thu 21 Jun, at 04:52. No text giving Rath Yatra’s time was found; sunrise is Tithika’s convention.
