Happy Raksha Bandhan

Raksha Bandhan or Rakhi. This is a very important Hindu festival which is celebrates the relationship between brothers, cousins and sisters. It is also called as Rakhi Purnima. This festival is marked by the tying of a rakhi, or a holy thread, which comes with many colors and design, which tied by the sisters on their brothers wrist. The brother in return offers a gift to his sister. The brother usually presents his sister with an envelope filled with money, though other presents such as saris and clothing can be given. The brother and sister traditionally feed one another sweets. These sweets include anything from Jalebi, Kaju Katli, and Burfi. 




WISH YOU ALL HAPPY RAKSHA BHANDAN
