Can someone resolve the contradiction?

edit

This page says that the festival takes place in the month of Ashar, but this page states that it begins on the last day of Choitro. Sminthopsis84 (talk) 12:25, 5 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

Reply: The references for Dhamrai Jagannath Rath mention Ashadh (June to July) as month of the festival. Rathyatras throughout the world are supposed to happen in Ashar month[1] although Groups like ISKCON are flexible with timing of the festival. So the article stating Chaitra is incorrect

Thank you! I've made a change that I hope uses an appropriate transliteration. Sminthopsis84 (talk) 14:47, 7 September 2012 (UTC)Reply
