Raksha Bandhan

Rakhi or Raksha Bandhan is a festival celebrated from times immemorial in India and different parts of the world. It is celebrated with great enthusiasm and fervor here in India. This festival epitomizes the unconditional love between brothers and sisters.

Rakhi or Raksha Bandhan is a sacred thread embellished with sister’s love and affection for her brother. On this day, sisters tie rakhi on their brother’s wrist. They perform ‘aarti’ and pray for their brothers’ long life.

On the other hand brothers vow to protect their sisters in time of need. After accepting rakhi from sisters brothers give return gift to the sisters. Exchanging the gift symbolizes the material approval of the sister’s love and an eternal vow of their togetherness. This festival strengthens the relationship between brothers and sisters.
