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.

Government of India can start a separate channel or engage Culturally rich channels like Makkal TV in Tamilnadu who do not broadcast cine moves or songs for revenue for imparting yoga practices. It may be made compulsory in every educational institutions and offices for better output and efficiency. Allowance given for yoga followers can be exempted from income tax for better compliance alongwith allowance for non-smoking,non-drinking and non-chewing pan.

3. Show yoga is for everyone..even for pregnant woman..give the message and importance of GARBH SANSKAR which is here in INDIA. So that every pregnant woman can deliver healthy baby with safe delivery without any health disorders. 4.Tell the chamatkar of OM which is giving peace mentally and physically both. 5. And then perform some basic exercise of breathing and stretching . Scientific reasons should be explained on each asana. 6. Importance of Surya Namaskar should be focalized.
