Read More »The UK’s new prime minister Rishi Sunak has made history after becoming the first person of colour to take on the top job. He has been outspoken about his Indian heritage and is “proud of his faith” as a Hindu. During his meeting with King Charles III on Tuesday (25 October), during which the monarch officially appointed him the new prime minister, many viewers spotted a red bracelet on his right wrist. The red bracelet also featured prominently in a photograph of Sunak waving outside Downing Street as he was congratulated for his new role. According to Guardian journalist Aina Khan, the string bracelet is “traditionally worn by Hindus for protection”. Dr Edward Anderson, assistant professor in history at Northumbria University who specialises in history and politics of India and Britain, also tweeted: “The red ‘bracelet’ is probably a kautuka, which is a part of Hindu culture.” A kautuka usually comprises of woven thread, cord or ribbon and is traditionally believed to have protective properties for the wearer. It is usually tied on by a priest or oldest family member during a Hindu rite-of-passage or yajna ritual. It is worn on the right wrist for men and the left wrist for women. The red thread also features in other family and marital ceremonies in Hindu culture. For example, it is tied to both the bride and groom in a Hindu marriage ceremony to symbolise the bond between husband and wife. According to reports, this was an accessory made for him by his daughters Krishna and Anoushka. Another type of bracelet could be a rakhi, according to Dr Anderson, which is tied onto brothers by their sisters during the Raksha Bandhan festival. The festival celebrates brotherhood and love, and the rakhi, which made of interwoven red and gold threads, symbolises the siblings’ relationships. Sunak is the eldest of three siblings. He has a brother, Sanjay, who works as a psychologist, while his sister Raakhi serves as chief of strategy and planning at Education Cannot Wait, a global fund for education by the United Nations.

You may have seen people wearing a red string bracelet. It is not worn for style but for cultural purposes. The red string bracelet is a Buddhist tradition, it is tied onto one's wrist to absorb all negative energy. In my culture, we wear a red string bracelet for it to absorb negative energy until it has held enough, it falls off. My mom has always said it brings bad luck if you cut it off on your own. Red thread is used because it represents protection, faith, and good luck. This bracelet is normally given on a certain event. For example, on my sweet sixteenth birthday, lots of bracelets were tied onto my wrists by all members of my family. It is usually given out at temples too. The amount of bracelets can vary depending on the occasion. My parents came from Cambodia together to the U.S. to live a new life after getting married. Even after they immigrated to the states, their traditions have never changed or have been forgotten about.
