Hyderabad (Telangana) [India], June 20 (ANI): Ahead of the International Day of Yoga, former Vice President M Venkaiah Naidu on Friday said that Yoga is for everyone’s health and mind, and it gives balance and positive ideas.
M Venkaiah Naidu, Union Minister G Kishan Reddy, and Telangana Governor Jishnu Dev Varma, practiced Yoga at Lal Bahadur Stadium, Hyderabad, during a 24-hour countdown event organised by the Ministry of Steel, Ministry of Coal and Ministry of Mines ahead of International Yoga Day tomorrow.
“I am happy to participate in this Yoga event in Hyderabad. I appreciate Union Minister G. Kishan Reddy for organising such a massive event. I am happy that the youth have participated in this programme. Yoga is for body and mind. Yoga has no religion. It is wrong to attribute religion to Yoga. It belongs to all. This will take care of your health and mind and give you balance and positive ideas. I am happy that Narendra Modi has taken the initiative, and the United Nations accepted it. Now, 184 countries are following Yoga,” Naidu told ANI.
Yoga Sangam, the main event, will orchestrate a synchronised mass yoga demonstration based on the Common Yoga Protocol (CYP) at over 1 lakh locations across India on June 21, 2025, from 6:30 AM to 7:45 AM. Prime Minister Narendra Modi will lead the national event at Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh. This collective celebration aims to reaffirm our shared commitment to the timeless practice of yoga and its enduring relevance in today’s world.
This year marks the 11th International Day of Yoga, with the theme “Yoga for One Earth, One Health”. This theme echoes a vital truth about the interconnectedness of health, sustainability, and the environment, aligning with India’s “One Earth, One Family, One Future” vision highlighted during its G20 presidency.
The International Day of Yoga 2025 will not just be a one-day observance–it will reflect India’s enduring commitment to holistic health, environmental harmony, and global well-being. With “Yoga for One Earth, One Health” as its guiding principle, India continues to lead the world in connecting physical fitness with mindful living. (ANI)
