Why is Bhai Dooj on Mon 24 Oct in Sevan?
Bhai Dooj is on Mon 24 Oct: Dwitiya holds all of aparahna that day, and no other.
Dwitiya holds all of aparahna, 12:48–14:58. Dwitiya: 11:31 to 11:55 Tue.
Dwitiya ended at 11:55; aparahna is Tritiya. Dwitiya: 11:31 Mon to 11:55.
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 11:31 on Mon 24 Oct to 11:55 on Tue 25 Oct, so only Monday’s aparahna (12:48–14:58) falls within it. No text giving Bhai Dooj’s time was found; aparahna is Tithika’s convention.
