Chandigarh, August 25: India is a land of festivals, many of which are unique in nature. One such unique festival celebrating the bond between a brother and sister is Raksha Bandhan, which will be celebrated across the country on Sunday. Festivals also bring to light a number of stories both from the past as well as the present. In one such story, a sister has sent her brother, a captain in the Indian Army, Capt. Danish Sodhi, a rakhi and a special message.
