The significance of Bhadrapada — Lord Ganesha & Krishna
Bhadrapada, at the tail of the monsoon, carries some of the year's biggest observances — Krishna's birth at Janmashtami, Ganesha's installation at Ganesh Chaturthi, and the ten days that end at Anant Chaturdashi. Its second, waning fortnight is Pitru Paksha, given wholly to the ancestors through tarpan and shraddh.
Rituals of Bhadrapada

When does Bhadrapada Maas 2035 start?
In North India (Purnimanta calendar) Bhadrapada runs from Monday, 20 August 2035 to Monday, 17 September 2035. In Amanta-calendar regions it runs Monday, 3 September 2035 to Monday, 1 October 2035.
