What is Raksha Bandhan?
Raksha Bandhan is a cherished Hindu festival celebrating the bond between siblings. Sisters tie a decorative thread called a rakhi around their brother's wrist as a symbol of love and protection, and in return brothers promise to look after them — a heartfelt renewal of family ties.
