Raksha Bandhan

Rakhi is basically a sacred thread of protection embellished with the love and affection of a sister for her brother. This day is also known as Raksha Bandhan and celebrated on the full moon day of the Hindu month of Shravana in India. This frail of thread of Rakhi is considered as stronger than iron chains as it binds the most beautiful relationship in an inseparable bond of love and trust. The festival is also called as Rakhi Poornima and coincides with other festivals like ‘Shravani Purnima’, ‘Narali Purnima’ and ‘Kajari Poornima’.
