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.

The first international yoga day should definitely feature an event that emphasizes on the need of, and showcases mechanisms to institutionalize yoga in various walks of national life. These include the education system and the skill development/training establishments in various fora. Its strange that everyone wants to increase outcomes, but a tonic for the single most important instrument (body, mind, intellect, soul composite) to achieve outcomes that is as effective as yoga is neglected.

It is required to promote correct meaning of YOGA, It is just not to do some breathe exercise in the morning. But it is your life style from your awaking to sleep, in your family, workplace, society everywhere your actions should be as per YOG. Need to promote Yogdarshan. People should get aware of all 8 steps of YOGA YAM, NIYAM, ASAN, PRANAYAM, pratyahar, dhyan, dharna, samadhi. YOG means to add, so people will "add through YOGA" & can remove bad habits from the life

माननीय प्रधान मंत्री जी अंतर्राष्ट्रीय योग दिवस अगर भारत में ही फीका फीका सा रहा तो विश्व भर में इसका वो महत्व नहीं रह जायेगा जो महत्त्व अभी बना हुआ है | इसलिए इस के आयोजन हेतु सभी केन्द्रीय और राज्य कार्यालयों में इस yog दिवस को अनिवार्य बनाने हेतु उसी तरह की व्यवस्था होनी चाहिए जैसी गणतंत्र दिवस और स्वतंत्रता दिवस की होती है सभी अधिकारीयों कर्मचारियों छात्र छात्राओं को इस कार्यक्रम में अनिवार्य रूप से प्रतिभाग करना हो, yog शिक्षक के लिए वह अपने आसपास संपर्क करें |

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.
