रक्षा बन्धन का इतिहास: क्या आज के स्त्री-पुरुष इस बन्धन में बंधे रहना चाहते हैं?

Prof. Bharat Gupt, Prof. Kapil Kumar & Ritu Rathaur Live with Madhu Kishwar


The brother-sister bond enjoys a unique sanctity in the Hindu tradition. No where else in the world has this bond been so celebrated as among Hindus of Bharat. 

And yet, there is no real scholarly study on the origins and changing facets of Raksha Bandhan through the ages, even though there are a lot of legends regarding this sacred festival.
In this day and age of aggressive assertion of equality by feminists, does this bond have any meaning for women today Is it practiced as a mere ritual today?
Or do “modernized” men and women still hold the brother sister relationship as a sacred bond?
