Raksha Bandhan – Short Paragraph 2. 

My topic of the paragraph is Raksha Bandhan.

Raksha Bandhan is a Hindu festival. It is celebrated throughout India. Along with India, it is also celebrated in Nepal and Mauritius.

This festival celebrates the pious bond between brother and sister.

During this festival, the atmosphere is filled with love, joy and happiness. Rituals began with sister applying tilak on their brother’s forehead and tie rakhi on their wrist.

Sisters pray for their brother’s well being and brother gives them gifts with love and blessing.

Women are more excited about this festival as they get a chance to shop and purchase beautiful attire.

It is the best Hindu festival. As people from long distance meet each other with full of love and affection.

So this rakhi what are you gifting your sister?

Thank you.
