## About Raksha Bandhan

On Raksha Bandhan sisters tie a rakhi on their brothers' wrists and pray for their wellbeing, and brothers promise to protect them. Because tying a rakhi during Bhadra is avoided, the day and time depend on when the full moon and Bhadra fall.

## How the date is decided

Raksha Bandhan falls on Shravana Purnima, outside Bhadra kaal. In 2026 it falls on Friday, 28 August 2026.
