Tentative dates follow the moon: Islamic holidays use the Umm al-Qura calendar and depend on moon sighting, and festival dates without an official list are estimated. The actual date may differ by a day.
Holidays set by the lunar Bengali and Hindu calendars (such as Durga Puja and Buddha Purnima) are not listed. Check the official government list once it is published.
