The same for every city, on the Bhai Dooj 1994 page:
Why is Bhai Dooj on Fri 4 Nov in Pāthardi?
Bhai Dooj is on Fri 4 Nov: Dwitiya touches aparahna that day, and no other.
Pratipada until 15:22, inside aparahna; then Dwitiya. Dwitiya: 15:22 to 11:44 Sat.
Dwitiya ended at 11:44; aparahna is Tritiya. Dwitiya: 15:22 Fri to 11:44.
One row per day, on one clock (IST). 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 15:22 on Fri 4 Nov to 11:44 on Sat 5 Nov, so it touches only Friday’s aparahna (13:21–15:37). No text giving Bhai Dooj’s time was found; aparahna is Tithika’s convention.
The rule
Kartika Shukla Dwitiya
The tilak is applied in aparahna, the fourth fifth of the day.
- Smarta
- the day whose aparahna Dwitiya holds: Tithika’s convention, since no text gives the time.
- Vaishnava
- the Smarta day.
