In Bihar's Rohtas, Women Make Rakhis To Honour Corona Warriors
The Morning Standard
|August 03, 2020
Women in Bihar’s Rohtas district have worked round the clock ahead of Raksha Bandhan to make hundreds of rakhis to honour doctors, cops and other front-line Covid-19 warriors.
The women, associated with an awareness campaign called ‘Hello Sister’ made eco-friendly rakhis following a unique initiative of Dr Madhu Upadhaya — the deputy chief of Sanjahuli block.
“It took us more than a fortnight in making rakhis to send the state’s corona warriors as a blessing of sisters to help them to fight coronavirus. We have mailed the rakhis –made from out pocket money saved, to more than 500 corona-warriors,” she said.
