When is Raksha Bandhan 2022?

This year, there is a lot of confusion on Raksha Bandhan date. According to some reports it is said that Rakhi will be celebrated on August 11, while some are saying that Raksha Bandhan will be observed on August 12.

According to Drik Panchang, Purnima would begin on August 11th at 10:38 am and it will end on 12th at 7:05 am. However, there would be Bhadra, along with the Purnima, which means its is not the right time of Muhurat to tie Rakhi, according to mythological beliefs.

So it is said that, this year one must tie Rakhi after 8:51 pm on August 11th till 12th August during the Purnima tithi, i.e., up to 7:16 am.
