RAKHI AND INDEPENDENCE DAY

                 RAKHI AND INDEPENDENCE DAY

 

Rakhi- also known as Rakshabandhan is Celebrated on the full-moon day of the Hindu month of Sravana this festival celebrates the love of a brother for his sister. ... Raksha means protection, and in some places in medieval India, where women felt unsafe, they tie Rakhi on the wrist of men, regarding them as brothers. Now it is a tradition to tie a rakhi to your brother. My mother also ties a rakhi to her father. To me rakhi is a day of happiness and cheerfulness. This year rakhi falls on 3^rd august.

How to make your own rakhi-

Materials required:

1.    String

2.    Pom poms (optional)

3.    Paper or foam paper

Independence day:

Independence day falls on 15^th august. This day is to celebrate the independence of india. IN 2020 WE COMPLETE 73 YEARS OF FREEDOM. This day for me is to celebrate not only the independence but also to celebrate the people who have worked hard for the independence.
