Kathmandu. The Nepal Panchanga Nirnayak Samiti (Calendar Determination Committee) has stated that there is no basis behind the rumor Bhai-tika ceremony cannot be performed in the month of Mangsir.

Committee Secretary Surya Prasad Dhungel has issued a statement today urging people to observe the festival, as Kartik Shukla will last as long as 15 Mangsir according to the lunar month.

Practitioners of Vedic Sanatan Hinduism celebrate festivals according to the lunar month. Due to the extra month (Malamas) in the month of Ashwin last year, the calendar has slightly shifted. The Committee has also urged brothers and sisters to celebrate Pancharangi or Saptarangi Tika as per the tradition and give sweets, gifts and dakshina to each other.
