Why is Bhai Dooj on Sat 25 Oct in Sevan?
Bhai Dooj is on Sat 25 Oct: Dwitiya holds all of aparahna that day, and no other.
Dwitiya holds all of aparahna, 12:46–14:56. Dwitiya: 01:55 to 04:29 Sun.
Dwitiya ended at 04:29; 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 01:55 on Sat 25 Oct to 04:29 on Sun 26 Oct, so only Saturday’s aparahna (12:46–14:56) falls within it. No text giving Bhai Dooj’s time was found; aparahna is Tithika’s convention.
