In his message, the Governor said that Raksha Bandhan signifies the ‘bond of protection’, the protection of the sisters by the brothers and in wider context protection of the womenfolk by the men with brotherly feelings. It also symbolizes affection and mutual trust and by extension it ushers in emotional integration, empathy, and cooperation amongst the people. I am sanguine that this tradition of celebrating the sacred relationship of brother and sister will further secure the warm endearment amongst the siblings and will spread love, amity and peace in the society, he said.
