In North India, the month of Sawan in the year 2025 has started on 11 July 2025, day Friday which will remain till 9 August 2025, till Saturday. At the same time, some states of South and Western India, such as Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Goa, Maharashtra, Gujarat, Karnataka and Tamil Nadu, will start from 25 July 2025 and end on 22 August 2025. Why the difference of 14 days in both areas?
1. North India (Purnimanta): Started after full moon- 11 July 2025 (Friday): 9 August 2025 (Saturday).
2. South/Western India (AMANTA): Starting after Amavasya- 25 July 2025 (Friday) to 22 August 2025 (Friday).
3. Nepal/Himalayan Region: Solar/Other Local System- 16 July 2025 to 16 August 2025 will be.
What is the reason for the difference of 14 days:
First reason discrimination:-
1. In South India, Amanta follows Chandra Calendar Almanac, while in North India, Purnimant follows Chandra Calanders. Shravan month starts after Amant i.e. Amavasya and Purnimant i.e. Purnima. In the Amant Chakra, the lunar year always begins after Pisces Sankranti and just before Aries Sankranti. In the full cycle, the moon year can begin before Pisces Sankranti,
2. In Nepal, Uttarakhand and parts of Himachal, Sawan month begins according to the solar calendar. Solar month, that is, the cycle of the Sun runs from Aries to Pisces. In it, the month of Sawan will start from Cancer Sankranti. Also Read: Why not eat Kadhi in Sawan? What is Ayurvedic reason? Know better options
Second reason difference in season cycle:
1. It is also said that due to the weather cycle distinction, it is also inequality in the calendar. As the monsoon comes first in Kerala, it reaches Central India a week after that. That is, assuming that the monsoon started in Kerala from June 1, then after June 7, the monsoon will come in Central India.
2. Like rain starts in the plains in the plains after a week of the start of rain in the hilly areas like Kashmir, Uttarakhand, Himachal etc. Therefore, the month of Sawan also runs on the rainy cycle. The months of Jyeshtha and Ashadh are the summer season and the month of Sawan and Bhadrapaksha are the Mahi of the rainy season.

3. Like sunrise is the first to occur in Arunacha, after which there is sunrise in central India after about 1 hour. Similarly, the difference in the calendar can also be seen due to the rise and difference between the weather, the rise and difference of dates. However, the cycle of Amant and Purnimant is originally considered.
