Why is Bhai Dooj on Sat 27 Oct in Ipameri?
Bhai Dooj is on Sat 27 Oct: Dwitiya holds all of aparahna that day, and no other.
Aparahna is Pratipada; Dwitiya begins at 01:00 Sat.
Dwitiya holds all of aparahna, 13:12–15:45. Dwitiya: 01:00 to 02:18 Sun.
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 01:00 on Sat 27 Oct to 02:18 on Sun 28 Oct, so only Saturday’s aparahna (13:12–15:45) falls within it. No text giving Bhai Dooj’s time was found; aparahna is Tithika’s convention.
