The coun- try has downgraded diplomatic ties with India af- ter provisions of Article 370, which gave special status to Jammu and Kashmir, were done away with and the state was turned into a Union Territory. If it is a bilateral sporting event, then whether India will play with Pakistan becomes a political decision. But Davis Cup is not a bilateral and is organised by a world sporting body, India is a signatory to the Olympic charter. Therefore, the government of India or the national federation do not have a say on whether India will participate or not. But as of now the venue change is just overlooked for political reasons.

The way they care for each other is beyond compare. No matter how much they fight with each other over trivial things, when the time comes, they stand by one another and ex- tend their support. The bond grows stronger as they age and go through various stages of life. They are there for each other in thick and thin. Elder brothers are highly protective of their sisters and the younger ones look up to their elder sisters for guidance. Likewise, elder sisters are extremely caring for their younger brothers and the younger ones seek their elder brother’s help and advice on various matters. In Indian tradition, the thread of rakhi is considered even stronger than an iron chain as it strongly binds brothers and sisters together in the circumference of mutual love and trust. Raksha Bandhan is known by different names in different parts of the country. But however the essence of the festival remains the same and that is to celebrate the sacred brother-sister bond. This year, Raksha Bandhan is being celebrated on August 15. It coincides with Indepen- dence Day.
