Abstract: Let $p_k(n)$ denote the number of $2$-color partitions of $n$ where one of the colors appears only in parts that are multiples of $k$. We will prove a conjecture of Ahmed, Baruah, and Dastidar on congruences modulo $5$ for $p_k(n)$. Moreover, we will present some new congruences modulo $7$ for $p_4(n)$.
