Raksha Bandhan, also known as Rakhi, is one of the most cherished festivals in India, celebrating the eternal bond of love, care, and protection between brothers and sisters. In 2025, Raksha Bandhan will be celebrated with the same enthusiasm, colorful rituals, and heartfelt emotions that have made it a timeless tradition.
The Significance of Raksha Bandhan
The festival’s name comes from the Sanskrit words “Raksha” (protection) and “Bandhan” (bond), symbolizing the promise of care and safety between siblings. Sisters tie a rakhi (decorative thread) on their brothers’ wrists, praying for their happiness and long life. In return, brothers give gifts and vow to protect their sisters in all circumstances.

While the core ritual remains the same, each family adds its unique touch. From preparing delicious sweets like barfi, laddoo, and kheer to dressing up in festive attire, Raksha Bandhan brings joy to every household. Some families also include cousins, close friends, and even community celebrations, making the day inclusive and heartwarming.
