The special festival of Raksha Bandhan is globally
popular to celebrate warm sentiments and emotions of brothers and
sisters. This festival is embellished with lots of care and affection
which epitomize the infinite love of a brother and sister. On day of
Raksha Bandhan, sisters decorate their puja thali and put fancy rakhis,
roli, rice particles, etc. They put roli on the forehead of their
brother, perform aarti and offer sweets. They also tie the sacred thread
of rakhi on their wrist and pray to god for bestowing him with good
health and long life. In turn, brothers hold the spirit of day and
promise their sisters to keep them happy and protect from all evils of
life. They also give either cash or gifts to show their love for their
sisters. The festival is also considered as a day to enjoy with all the
family members. It invites lots of merriment in the family where
everyone come together to celebrate beautiful occasion of Rakhi.
