They also sent rakhi to the US President by post. Social worker Nazneen Ansari with a group of women made these rakhis using Indian yarn. Dr Rajiv Srivastava, founder of a non-government organisation said that women made rakhi and sent it to American president Donald Trump to strengthen the bond between India and America. It has been decided that the Chinese rakhis would be boycotted and no one will tie Chinese rakhi.

“We have decided to boycott Chinese rakhis and other products. We are thankful to the US President Donald Trump for backing India during tension with China. We have sent a rakhi to the American president,” Ansari said
