One of girls also gave PM Modi a peck on his cheeks as he proceeded to bend down and bless her. He also posed for a group photo with students and teachers.

The customised rakhis, which the girls tied on PM Modi's wrist, had his image on them.

The festival marking the eternal bond between a brother and a sister is being celebrated with signature pomp and fervour across the country.
