In December 2014 the United Nations declared 21st June as ‘International Day of Yoga’ after 177 nations across all continents of the world co-sponsored a resolution seeking the same.

When the resolution was adopted, Prime Minister Narendra Modi expressed immense joy on this and said that Yoga has the power to bring the entire humankind together. It may be recalled that the Prime Minister had mooted such an idea during his speech at the United Nations General Assembly in September 2014.

You are requested to provide inputs on the following aspects relating to the marking of the first ever ‘International Day of Yoga’.

(1) How can the ‘International Day of Yoga’ be celebrated at the UN forum?

(2) Suggest creative ways in which the ‘International Day of Yoga’ can be celebrated at the world stage.

(3) What are ways in which we can mark the ‘International Day of Yoga’ across the length and breadth of India?

Best inputs and suggestions would be sent to the Prime Minister himself and would also be utilized.

Yoga must be introduced as a part of our education system till 10th std. This will create awareness among the younger generation on the knowledge about human anatomy our ancestors had and the amount of R&D they would have done to specifically target & cure many disorders of body and mind.

declare yoga as 'rashtriya arogya vigyan'. primacy given to allopathic system, which has encouraged 5 star hospitals (factories for un-necessary tests/surgeries by doctors under management pressure)is responsible for the mess in national health scene. Honble PM is shamelessly admitting (by saying that 65% of indians are below 35) that indians do not live beyond 65 years. only yog can increase life span as it is based on disease prevention unlike other pathies which want you to become ill.
