The reference contrasts Jaipur-Atrauli and Agra versions. Bhankar is distinct from Bhankari. A fixed scale and principal-note pair are not invented for all its forms. Shorthand: r/g/d/n = komal; m = shuddha Ma; M^ = tivra Ma. Octave positions are not added to the reference shorthand. Unassigned fields are not a claim of an anytime tradition. The selected daily window follows Raagtime; it does not erase gharana differences or seasonal flexibility.
