Raksha means protection and bandhan means bond. It is celebrated on the day of purnima in the month of Shrawan. On this day, the sister ties a special thread on her brother’s wrist. Sisters pray to god for the safety, good health and health of her brothers and in return brothers take a lifelong vow to protect their sister. The brothers also give her gifts and money. Every girl who has a brother cherishes this day.
