I am not sure about the authenticity of the dates. As far as my information Ganesh chaturthi is on the 12th of April and Poilabaishak is on the 13th of april
These are the dates based on Indian Standard time and followed by popular calendars used in India. As per them these are the dates. Marathi calendar has given Ganesh Sankashta on April 12 and Bengali calendars have given poilabaishak on April 15. If you are living some other part of the world the dates might be a day early or after.
Sush... the April 14th date here was an error and we are really sorry for that. But we had given the exact date in the main article plus on the Sankashti year calendar.
April 13th date is mentioned in Tamil Calendars. April 12th is for those regions were Purnima had started on April 8th.
Thanks
You missed Baisakhi on April 13...
