The same for every city, on the Bhai Dooj 2089 page:
Why is Bhai Dooj on Fri 4 Nov in Sevan?
Bhai Dooj is on Fri 4 Nov: Dwitiya touches aparahna that day, and no other.
Aparahna is Pratipada; Dwitiya begins at 15:55. Dwitiya: 15:55 to 15:27 Fri.
Dwitiya holds aparahna only until 15:27; then Tritiya. Dwitiya: 15:55 Thu to 15:27.
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 15:55 on Thu 3 Nov to 15:27 on Fri 4 Nov, so it touches only Friday’s aparahna (13:45–15:48). 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.
