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.

PM Modi ji's great step to take India forward as a successful nation, culturally and economically. Please promote physiotherapy along with yoga in india more too, so as to retain physiotherapists in the country itself . they prefer going abroad since they get good pay there rather than in india. so YOGA along with PHYSIOTHERAPY will be a good combination. PHYSIOTHERAPY IS CLOSELY ASSOCIATED WITH YOGA.

i am very happy to be the citizen of India where yoga was born. and i am equally happy to see hoe it is progressing day by day, not only in India, but also in foreign nations. i wish that yoga is presented on Tv channels everyday , including all asanas, breathing techniques. there should be A SEPARATE GOVT. CHANNEL FOR YOGA.

they saw their children (who learned music despite opposition ) getting prize and recognition they changed their attitude.Let us respect their right to stay away from yoga and please dont criticize them.They will realise your good intention and will support yoga.Our country had many PMs and atleast some of them might have practised yoga.But it took a great personality like u Sir to popularise it and make every citizen enjoy its benefits

Sir there was opposition from muslim organisations about yoga especially Surya namaskar. let surya namaskar made optional and we shall not drop it altogether. By observing the benefits of yoga i am sure that those who opposed it shall change their mind.I dont think that this is the collective opinion of all muslims as i personally know muslims who do sudarsana kriya yoga. Earlier Mosques were opposed to muslims learning karnatic music as all kirtans were written in praise of hindu GODS. when

योग If you are trying to look ways for stress management, there can’t be anything other than Yoga aasan Pranayama (inhaling and exhaling air slowly using one of the nostrils). It ignites body, mind and soul and the best and easy aasan among all aasans. #MyGov
