Over the years, the tradition has continued with sisters tying a ‘Rakhi’ around the wrist of brothers and them promising to protect them always.

In Mahabharata, when Lord Krishna had cut his finger while using his divine discus, Draupadi had dressed up his wound using the loose end of her saree. Thus, he had promised to protect her always and he had kept his word especially during her public humiliation in the Hastinapur royal court. Nowadays, you can find many different rakhis — of different colors, varieties, and designs.
