Government school celebrates Rakhi festival

Chevella: Rakhi festival was celebrated at a government school in Chilkur on Thursday in the presence of Balaji Temple chief priest Rangarajan. Girl students tied rakhis to boys. Speaking on the occasion, Rangarajan said that the annual festival celebrated at every house in the country, symbolises affection between siblings. He appealed to girls to tie rakhi even to strangers. It will bring social change, the priest hoped. He also said that they are going to organise the festival at the temple on August 26.
