Raksha Bandhan, a festival that celebrates the strong bond between brothers and sisters, will be even more special in Uttar Pradesh this year. On 19th August, families will come together to celebrate this day, and the Yogi government has a special gift for all women in the state.
To make Raksha Bandhan easier and more enjoyable, CM Yogi Adityanath has announced free bus travel for women on this special day. From the night of 18th August to the night of 19th August, women can travel for free in state-run buses across Uttar Pradesh. This means you can visit your brother without worrying about buying a ticket. The free bus travel for women on Raksha Bandhan is a great rakhi gift for all women from the CM.
In a meeting at his residence, CM Yogi shared that this free bus service is a way to make sure every woman can celebrate Raksha Bandhan without any hassle. He emphasized that Raksha Bandhan is a time when sisters visit their brothers, and the government wants to make that journey smooth and safe.
But that’s not all—this initiative is not just about free travel; it’s about ensuring that every woman feels safe and secure during her journey. In line with this, CM Yogi has instructed an increase in police patrolling and vigilance to maintain a peaceful atmosphere as women travel to celebrate this cherished festival.
As Uttar Pradesh gears up for a series of upcoming festivals like Nag Panchami, Shravan Monday, and Janmashtami, the Yogi government is leaving no stone unturned in its preparations. With detailed discussions and guidelines in place, the state is ready to ensure that each celebration is filled with joy, harmony, and above all, safety.
So, this Raksha Bandhan, as you prepare to tie that sacred thread, know that the journey to your brother’s doorstep has been made a little easier and a lot more special, thanks to CM Yogi’s thoughtful gesture. Let the celebrations begin, and may the bonds of love only grow stronger!
