Calling Up Twins to the Torah

Question

At the Bar Mitzvah of twin boys, one is called up for the seventh aliyah and the other for maftir (from a different sefer, for Parashas Shekalim). Is there any issue with brothers being called up one after the other? 

Answer

Shalom uVracha,

This is not a problem, since it is permitted when using two Sifrei Torah.
