Why is Bhai Dooj on Mon 26 Oct in Chahārbāgh?
Bhai Dooj is on Mon 26 Oct: Dwitiya holds all of aparahna that day, and no other.
Dwitiya holds all of aparahna, 12:51–15:03. Dwitiya: 10:47 to 10:59 Tue.
Dwitiya ended at 10:59; aparahna is Tritiya. Dwitiya: 10:47 Mon to 10:59.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+3:25). 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 10:47 on Mon 26 Oct to 10:59 on Tue 27 Oct, so only Monday’s aparahna (12:51–15:03) falls within it. No text giving Bhai Dooj’s time was found; aparahna is Tithika’s convention.
