Why is Bhai Dooj on Tue 2 Nov in Sevan?
Bhai Dooj is on Tue 2 Nov: Dwitiya holds all of aparahna that day, and no other.
Dwitiya holds all of aparahna, 12:45–14:50. Dwitiya: 06:49 to 05:06 Wed.
Dwitiya ended at 05:06; 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 06:49 on Tue 2 Nov to 05:06 on Wed 3 Nov, so only Tuesday’s aparahna (12:45–14:50) falls within it. No text giving Bhai Dooj’s time was found; aparahna is Tithika’s convention.
