Rath Yatra is on Sat 14 Jul: Dwitiya holds sunrise that day.

Dwitiya ended at 20:25 Sat; sunrise at 05:50 is Tritiya.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+1). Band: the tithi. Line: Sunrise. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
Rath Yatra follows the tithi at sunrise. Dwitiya runs from 00:02 on Sat 14 Jul to 20:25 on Sat 14 Jul, so it holds sunrise only on Sat 14 Jul, at 05:50. No text giving Rath Yatra’s time was found; sunrise is Tithika’s convention.
