Modi persuaded the U.N. to designate the annual International Day of Yoga in 2014. The theme this year was “Yoga for One Earth, One Health.”

International Yoga Day was celebrated with great enthusiasm at various locations across Goraya and Kapurthala, with residents actively participating in yoga sessions aimed at promoting physical and mental well-being.

Across the globe, millions will roll out their mats Saturday to mark International Yoga Day, a worldwide celebration of mindfulness, physical wellness and inner peace.
