Digital Desk: Rajnath Singh, the Union defence minister,
visited young students from several schools in advance of the Rakshabandhan
celebration and received rakhi created by them to give to the soldiers
zealously policing India's borders. Rakshabandhan commemorates the enduring
love that unites a brother and sister and occurs on the full moon day, or
Purnima, of the Shravan month. The festival will take place this year on August
11..
Rajnath Singh stated
at the occasion in Delhi, "As the Defence Minister of the country, I
assure you that I myself would send these rakhis to the three service chiefs so
that they can reach the jawans of the three services."
Dr. Ramasubramanian,
Senior Principal, Bharani Park Group of Institutions, Karur, Tamil Nadu,
commented on the rakhis the students brought with them, saying, "With lots
of love and gratitude, we've brought 1.5 lakh handmade rakhis for brave
soldiers of our country - 75,000 of them have Tirukkura printed on them, and
another 75,000 are handmade."
According to BJP
politician Tarun Vijay, the rakhis were written in 18 different languages, with
roughly 25,000 of them being Santhali, the language of the same tribal group
from which President Murmu hails. There are 18 different languages represented
in these rakhis. All of them are handmade, created in Tamil Nadu, and roughly
25,000 of them are made in the Santhali language, which is understood to be the
tongue of our tribal brothers and sisters and from which the President hails.
Religion holds that
tying a rakhi, a charm or amulet knotted around the wrist, at a fortunate
moment symbolises the ceremonial expression of a sister's pious prayer that her
brother be safeguarded and guided by spiritual vision.
The primary idea
underlying this practise is referred to as "Raksha Bandhan," which in
Sanskrit means "the link of protection, obligation, or care."
It is sometimes referred to as Rakhi and is quite similar to
Bhai Dooj in spirit and feeling. The occasion is now observed with lavish
feasts, and brothers frequently show their affection for their sisters by
giving them gifts.
