PATNA: Patnaites are gearing up to celebrate Rakshabandhan on August 11. Many girls and women in the city have already started to buy ‘rakhis’ for their brothers staying at distant places.
According to Prashant Singh, an owner of a shop at Boring Road, the most sought after ‘rakhis’ include, golden chain ‘rakhis’ with ‘veera’ written on it. “These ‘rakhis’ cost anything between Rs 350-500. Besides, people also are loving the evil-eyed ‘rakhis’ as they believe that this will protect their brothers from all bad things,” Singh said, adding that the cost of such ‘rakhis’ starts from Rs 90.
