On the day of Raksha Bandhan, a sister ties Rakhi on the wrist of their brothers. At the same time, they also ask the blessings, prosperity and happiness of the brothers. A Mantra is read while tying Rakhi on the wrist, by reading that mantra, even the Pandit can also tie rakhi to Yahan for their protection, that mantra is:

The King of Demons occupied the three worlds and declared himself the King of the Trilok. Devas of the demons Devraj Indra Guru then reached Brihaspati's shelter and prayed for protection. Then the Raksha Puja was completed in the morning.
In this legislation, Guru Brihaspati read the mantra mentioned above; In addition, Indra and his wife Indrani also repeated this mantra behind. Indra's wife Indrani gave all the Brahmins the power of protection in the defence and tied her on the wrist of the right hand of Indra. Indra defeated the Ashur with the powers derived from this Puja and regained his lost regime.
Another way to celebrate Raksha Bandhan is also famous. Women get ready to worship this day in the morning and give a gold leg on the walls of the house. After that, they worshipped him with worship, with kheer and sweets. Then they bind the thread of Rakhi on gold. The women who plant horns on Nag Panchami, they keep that plant for worship. After tying Rakhi on the wrists of his brothers, they keep these earrings on the ears of the brothers.
On every Raksha Bandhan, every sister prays for the long life of her brothers. And ask for the happiness of the weather from God.
