The correct answer is Option (4) - Poornima, Shravan month
Raksha Bandhan is celebrated on the Poornima (full moon day) of the Shravan month as per the Hindu calendar.
- Raksha Bandhan literally means "bond of protection." It is a festival that celebrates the bond between a brother and sister.
- Shravan is the fifth month of the Hindu calendar, which typically falls in August.
- Poornima is the 15th day of the lunar month, when the moon is full.
On this day, sisters tie a rakhi (sacred thread) on their brothers' wrists as a symbol of protection and love. Brothers, in return, give their sisters gifts and promise to protect them. |
