Raksha Bandhan: Women make 'Swadeshi Rakhi' under 'Atmanirbhar Bharat' initiative

Women in parts of the country are making Rakhi under the 'Atmanirbhar Bharat' initiative as Raksha Bandhan is around the corner and market has observed a boycott towards Chinese Rakhi and gifts.

The materials used in making these Rakhi are 'Made in India.'

Women living in Nirbhaya Ashram Shelter Home in Bhopal are making Rakhi ahead of Raksha Bandhan.

Nirbhaya Ashram Shelter Home, Director Samar said, "I request all sisters to tie the thread of love prepared in the country rather than the one's from china." PM Modi's message not just went down well in adults but in students too.

A class 10th student in Aligarh made 'Swadeshi Rakhi' for her relatives and friends to promote Prime Minister Narendra Modi's 'Make in India' initiative.
