Why is Bhai Dooj on Sat 6 Nov in Polatlı?
Bhai Dooj is on Sat 6 Nov: Dwitiya holds all of aparahna that day, and no other.
Aparahna is Pratipada; Dwitiya begins at 20:45.
Dwitiya holds all of aparahna, 13:36–15:40. Dwitiya: 20:45 Fri to 17:14.
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 20:45 on Fri 5 Nov to 17:14 on Sat 6 Nov, so only Saturday’s aparahna (13:36–15:40) falls within it. No text giving Bhai Dooj’s time was found; aparahna is Tithika’s convention.
