Raksha Bandhan, one of the major Indian festivals, is a celebration of the enduring bond between siblings. Typically observed on the full moon day of the Hindu month of Shravana, this occasion revolves around the symbolic tying of a sacred thread, known as a rakhi, by a sister onto her brother's wrist. The rakhi signifies the sister's love and prayers for her brother's well-being, while the brother, in turn, pledges to protect and support his sister throughout their lives.
