Raksha Bandhan festival comes some time in July and heralds the arrival of the monsoon. It is one of the most sentimental festivals in India. It is based on the strong emotional ties that bind a brother and sister. Women, having been regarded as the weaker sex for ages past, had been dependent on the male members of their family for emotional and financial support. To ackowledge this special relationship, the sister ties the rakhi bracelet on the right hand wrist of all her brothers, bestowing deep affection and blessings to keep them from harm.
