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.

On 26-4-15 in his speech Maan Ki baat Respected PM Mr Narendra Damodardas Modi emphasized on MAYLA MATHE PE DHONA (carrying dirt on head). The phrase was headline in each and every NEWS of the day. Is He really concern about this and made provisions of reservation in LOK SABHA, RAJYA SABHA, STATE VIDHAN SABHA, MILITARY etc etc etc ...... Such reservations are in place in other aspects of life. Respected PM Mr NARENDRA DAMODARDAS MODI SIR do you have explanation or just a speech.

I think the first International Day should be made a big event in India and invite world leaders. Not sure if government has already decided, if not it is too late.

AS we all know that yoga is an Indian heritage and now after the programme of temple of heaven it had gained its internatinoal identity ,i think the best way to increase its propoganda is to launch first yoga camps at local level so that first the citizen of our own country gets benifitted and provide a good example before all nations ,schools and students can play a major role ,if one day of routine is declared as ''yoga the shakti of omkar'' day

Free Yoga Camps can be started at selected places for a week, starting from 14th June and culminating on 21st June. The place and time for the camps should be well publicised in advanced and camp timings should be such that office goers and working class people will find time to attend it.

Yoga should be embedded in daily routine of citizens. It not only heals outer body byt also helps in straightening inner power of one. Yoga makes you disciplined, helps in taking faster decisions.
