Raksha Bandhan festival celebrated across Tundla and Powai

The Raksha Bandhan festival was celebrated with significant enthusiasm across various regions, including Tundla and Powai. The festival, which symbolizes the bond of love and protection between brothers and sisters, saw families participating in traditional rituals.

In Tundla, sisters performed prayers and tied sacred threads, known as rakhis, onto their brothers' wrists while praying for their longevity and prosperity. Brothers reciprocated by offering gifts and pledging to protect their sisters. Many families also observed traditional customs, such as decorating walls with symbols of Shravan Kumar.

In Powai and surrounding areas, markets experienced high activity with crowds visiting shops for rakhis and sweets. Due to modern connectivity, siblings living in different cities celebrated via video calls and online rakhis, ensuring the tradition continued despite physical distance.
