Why is Bhai Dooj on Sun 29 Oct in Sevan?
Bhai Dooj is on Sun 29 Oct: Dwitiya holds all of aparahna that day, and no other.
Dwitiya holds all of aparahna, 12:45–14:52. Dwitiya: 06:01 to 02:19 Mon.
Dwitiya ended at 02:19; aparahna is Tritiya.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+3). Band: the tithi. Box: Aparahna. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
The tilak is applied in aparahna, the fourth fifth of the day. Dwitiya runs from 06:01 on Sun 29 Oct to 02:19 on Mon 30 Oct, so only Sunday’s aparahna (12:45–14:52) falls within it. No text giving Bhai Dooj’s time was found; aparahna is Tithika’s convention.
