THIS PPT CONTAINS INFORMATION ABOUT THE FESTIVAL RAKSHA BANDHAN.

2. RAKSHA BANDHAN
Raksha Bandhan, also Rakshabandhan, is a
popular, traditionally Hindu, annual rite, or
ceremony, which is central to a festival of the
same name, celebrated in South Asia, and among
people around the world influenced by Hindu
culture

3. Why do we celebrate Raksha Bandhan?
Celebrated on the full-moon day of the Hindu month of
Sravana (July/August), this festival celebrates the love
of a brother for his sister. On this day, sisters tie rakhi
on the wrists of their brothers to protect them against evil
influences, and pray for their long life and happiness.

4. How did Raksha Bandhan started?
When Rani Karnavati, the widowed queen of the king
of Chittor, realised that she could not defend against the
invasion by the Sultan of Gujarat, Bahadur Shah, she
sent a rakhi to Emperor Humayun. The Emperor,
according to one version of the story, set off with his
troops to defend Chittor.
