Raksha Bandhan is a cherished Hindu festival celebrated primarily in India, symbolising the bond between brothers and sisters. Observed on the full moon day of the Hindu month of Shravana, which typically falls in August, the festival involves sisters tying a protective thread, known as a rakhi, around their brothers' wrists. This gesture signifies their love and prayers for their brothers' well-being, while brothers, in turn, pledge to protect and support their sisters throughout their lives.
