Several astrologers have noted that his powerful alignment has not occurred in around 95-100 years, which makes this year’s Raksha Bandhan truly special. (File Photo)

While Raksha Bandhan has its roots in religious customs, it has evolved into a broader celebration of human relationships and emotional bonds. Beyond just brothers and sisters, the festival is now embraced as a symbol of unity, trust, and mutual respect, and can be observed between cousins, close friends, or even neighbours who share a bond of care and loyalty.
