'Raksha Bandhan', the word 'Raksha' means protection and the word 'Bandhan' stands for bond. Celebrated on the full moon day of the Hindu month of Sravana (July/August), it celebrates a brother's love for his sister. On this day, the sisters tie the rakhi to their brothers' wrists to protect them from bad influences, and pray for their long life and happiness. Relationships are the essence of any festivity and it holds true for any Indian festival. Each occasion brings the family together which calls for a celebration.
