The book discusses all the calendar issues and key constituents of Indian calendar before providing the concrete guidelines for resolving the calendar anomalies. Apart from addressing questions like ‘Can we use the tropical rashi ingress for Chaitra etc. months?’, sufficiently backed with academic and logical support, the book provides the Author's take on key festivals and rituals in the final chapter.
