Raksha Bandhan 2025: Date, Significance, and History

Raksha Bandhan, also called Rakhi, is a special day in India to celebrate the love between brothers and sisters.

Sisters tie colorful bracelets called Rakhis on their brothers' wrists, wishing them well.

Brothers often give gifts in return.

It's a tradition with roots in ancient stories, like when a protective thread was used for kings.

This year, Raksha Bandhan will be celebrated on August 9th.
