Ministry of Ayush promotes ‘Yoga for Unity’ on National Unity Day

The Ministry of Ayush is promoting the message of ‘Yoga for Unity’ on the occasion of National Unity Day, being observed to mark the 151st birth anniversary of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel.

The Ministry of Ayush said the initiative, integrated with Yoga 365, aims to encourage people to make yoga a part of their daily lives and promote national integration, social harmony and collective well-being. The Ministry has encouraged its yoga and naturopathy institutions across the country to organise various activities to spread the message of Yoga for Unity and ensure wider public participation.

Union Minister of Ayush Prataprao Jadhav said Sardar Patel united the nation through his vision and determination. He said yoga brings people together beyond differences of age, region and background and promotes physical and mental well-being. The campaign underscores that yoga is not limited to a particular day or occasion but can be adopted as a regular practice to promote individual health and strengthen community bonds.

The Ministry further stated that, through ‘Yoga for Unity’, it reaffirms its commitment to promoting yoga as an accessible practice for healthy living and collective well-being, while carrying forward the spirit of national integration and unity envisioned by Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel.
