“This year the theme of Yoga Day is – ‘Yoga For Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam’ i.e. Yoga for the welfare of all in the form of ‘One World-One Family’. It expresses the spirit of Yoga, which unites and takes everyone along. Like every time, this time too programs related to yoga will be organised in every corner of the country,” said Prime Minister Narendra Modi in 102nd episode of ‘Mann ki Baat’ on Sunday.
He said that this time he will get the opportunity to participate in the Yoga Day program to be held at the United Nations Headquarters in New York. He said that on social media, there is tremendous enthusiasm about Yoga Day.
“I urge all of you to adopt yoga in your life, make it a part of your daily routine. If you are still not connected with yoga, then the 21st of June is a great opportunity for this resolve. There is no need for many frills in yoga anyway. See, when you join yoga, what a big change will come in your life,” he further added
Here it is worth mentioning that on December 11, 2014, the United Nations proclaimed June 21 as the International Day of Yoga.
Notably, on June 21, Prime Minster Modi, who will be in visit to US from June 21 to 25, will lead the International Yoga Day celebrations at the United Nations Secretariat in New York. Notably, Prime Minister has been instrumental in promoting yoga globally since 2015 when the UN proclaimed this day as the International Day of Yoga.
