India celebrates Rakhi, festival of brother-sister bond
- 5 years ago
Raksha Bandhan means “Knot of Protection,” and the festival ceremonies include the sister tying a rakhi bracelet around her brother's wrist, which symbolizes the sister's love and the brother's lifelong duty to protect his sibling. The festival is often simply referred to as “Rakhi” after the name of this ceremonial bracelet.
Saturday, the President of India, Pranab Mukherjee, and the Prime Minister of India, Narendra Modi, issued a greeting for tomorrow’s celebration, focusing on women: “May the festival be an occasion for re-dedication to the well being of women, particularly the girl child.”
