Meanwhile, Drik Panchang says that brothers and sisters can tie Rakhi from 08:51 pm to 09:13 pm on August 11 because of Bhadra. Additionally, they can also mark the festival during the time of Bhadra Punchha, which will be from 05:17 pm to 06:18 pm on August 11. Since the full moon will last only till 07:16 in the morning and there is no Bhadra on August 12, people can also celebrate Rakhi on this day.
