3.First instance of Raksha Bandhan and it's purpose: Rabindranath used Rakhi as an important medium to oppose the partition of Bengal in 1905. On July 20 of that year, the British government declared the partition of Bengal. It was informed that this law would come into force on 16th October in 1905, in the Bengali month of 30th Ashwin. At that time people irrespective of religion and caste joined in the protest against the partition of Bengal. It was decided that on that day the people of Bengal will tie yellow thread in each other's hands. This day is celebrated as Milon Dibas( Union Day). Ravindranath declared that this day will be celebrated as the Raksha Bandhan festival. Rabindranath took this initiative to promote harmony and brotherhood between Hindus and Muslims in Bengal. But that Raksha Bandhan festival did not take place in the month of Shraban or Purnima. The main theme of Raksha Bandhan was not only the brother and sister but the unity between all the peoples of Bengal. The way in which harmony took place on that Raksha Bandhan festival is still relevant today.
If we look at the history, we can see that the Raksha Bandhan festival was celebrated on 30th Ashwin of Bengali month on the streets of Kolkata under the leadership of Rabindranath. However, the raksha Bandha in the Bengali month of Shraban has nothing to do with this raksha Bandhan. The main purpose of this Raksha Bandhan was humanity, harmony and unity.
5.What we have learned from Raksha Bandhan and it's importance in our present Day:
The time we are going through now is very tough and in this tough time the festivals like Raksha Bandhan is very much needed. In order to preserve the tradition, the brotherhood and the communal harmony of India we should follow the path of Rabindranath Tagore, the greatest poet of Bengal and as well as India.I wish you a very happy Raksha Bandhan.Be happy and wealthy...☺️😍

Why did I wrote siblings and didn't write between brother and sister ?
As because this festival is a honoring of the indestructible bond between siblings with a promise to be there always for their safety , to protect and no matter how many difficulties come to there path. This festival isn't meant only for brother and sister but can celebrated by sister and sister in order to protect her from many difficulties.

Raksha bandhan has a great historical significance as it was started in Mahabharata , when the wife of Pandavas, Draupadi torn a piece of cloth from her saree to tie around the wrist of Krishna to prevent bleeding as he had got a cut in middle finger from the kite's thread. krishna felt quite happy and promise her to protect from every difficulties and he did that by saving Draupadi from "Vastra haran ".

It is also pronounced holy verse of unity regarded as a sign of living together . In ancient time when women feel insecure, they tie a thread "Rakhi" on the wrist of their brother or any men. In this manner the word "Rakhi" strengthens the pure bond between the siblings .
