Gayatri Pariwar Expands Raksha Bandhan Social Pledge Campaign Globally
A group called Akhil Vishwa Gayatri Pariwar is using Raksha Bandhan to share messages about helping society.
It has sent more than 10 lakh cards to 12 states and several countries.
The cards ask young people to respect and keep women safe.
They also encourage people to stay away from drugs.
The messages say substance abuse can harm health, character and family peace.
The cards ask people to plant and care for trees.
The campaign started on July 1.
