Raksha Bandhan is one of the most auspicious festivals widely celebrated in India. It not only marks the beautiful bonding of protection and love between two siblings but also means a sister's prayers for her brother's long life and safety. The festival also holds a special significance in making special relations between two countries or even enemies. One such beautiful bond is between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his Pakistani sister, Qamar Mohsin Sheikh.
Qamar Mohsin Sheikh has been tying rakhis on the wrist of her muh bola bhai, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, for more than three decades. Now, as per a report in ANI, she has once again prepared a handmade rakhi for the Indian PM. Moreover, she is all set to tie the rakhi in the nation's capital. In addition, Qamar plans to gift a book on agriculture to Narendra Modi. In a conversation with ANI, Qamar revealed:
"This time I have made the 'Rakhi' myself. I wish him a happy Raksha Bandhan. I pray for him every day for his good health and long life. I believe that all my wishes come true. I will also gift him (PM Modi) a book on agriculture as he is fond of reading."

Qamar Mohsin Sheikh is a woman of Pakistan origin. She moved to India after her marriage. And having moved from Pakistan to India post-marrying, the Pakistani lady has been residing in Ahmedabad with her family. On the other hand, PM Narendra Modi hailing from the same place, has a beautiful connection with Qamar Mohsin Sheikh. Thus, she has been diligently handcrafting and tying a rakhi to Narendra Modi for over 30 years. This beautiful tradition of Raksha Bandhan was also continued during his tenure as the Chief Minister of Gujarat. And post-this, Qamar used to travel to Delhi to tie the rakhi on Narendra Modi's wrist every year.

Whenever I tied the Rakhi, I used to express my desire for him to become the Prime Minister.

He is doing commendable work for the country."
