Focus on inner peace, says Modi as India leads world on Yoga Day

NEW DELHI/VISAKHAPATNAM:

Leading the 11th International Yoga Day celebrations in Visakhapatnam in Andhra Pradesh, the PM said the day marks the beginning of the ancient practice for humanity.

"Unfortunately, today the whole world is going through some kind of tension. In many regions, unrest and instability are increasing. In such a situation, Yoga gives us the direction of peace. Yoga is the pause button that humanity needs to breathe, to balance, to become whole again," PM said.

"My request to the world—let this Yoga Day mark the beginning of Yoga for humanity 2.0 where inner peace becomes global policy," the PM said.

Modi congratulated Andhra Pradesh chief minister N Chandrababu Naidu, deputy CM Pawan Kalyan, and minister Nara Lokesh for organising Yogandhra project.
