Lucknow:
The Rashtriya Swamsevak Sangh will use the `rakhi’ bond to counter alleged forced conversions and `love jihad’ cases in western Uttar Pradesh.
The Sangh will carry out a week-long awareness drive, starting August 10, in the region wherein its cadre will tie rakhis to Hindus and ask them to take a pledge to protect their religion and chant the mantra: “Yen baddho Bali raja danvendro mahabal, tein twam abhibadhnami raksh machalmachal (do not fail to protect whosoever ties rakhi to you).“
