Why is Bhai Dooj on Thu 19 Oct in Sevan?
Bhai Dooj is on Thu 19 Oct: Dwitiya holds all of aparahna that day, and no other.
Aparahna is Pratipada; Dwitiya begins at 03:31 Thu.
Dwitiya holds all of aparahna, 13:50–16:02. Dwitiya: 03:31 to 00:29 Fri.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+4). 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 03:31 on Thu 19 Oct to 00:29 on Fri 20 Oct, so only Thursday’s aparahna (13:50–16:02) falls within it. No text giving Bhai Dooj’s time was found; aparahna is Tithika’s convention.
