Yoga adds discipline to our life that ultimately helps in betterment of our health and living. Its origin lies in the history of India (pre-Vedic period) and practicing Yoga harmonises both mind and body. The United Nations General Assembly took a historic decision in 2014 to declare 21 st June as the International Day of Yoga (IDY). This worldwide acceptance of Yoga is a matter of pride for our country, as Yoga is an integral part of our nation’s cultural and spiritual heritage. Every year, the IDY observation begins with a Mass Yoga Demonstration in the morning, which is led by the Prime Minister himself, followed by other Yoga related activities.
