Prime Minister Narendra Modi inquired about the arrangements for the International Yoga Day program to be organized in Andhra Pradesh on the 21st of this month at Visakhapatnam. TDP Parliamentary Party Leader Lavu Srikrishna Devaraya met the Prime Minister to explain various aspects of the tour to four countries on Operation Sindoor, as part of multi-party MPs delegations.
On this occasion, the issue of Yoga Day came up. It may be recalled that this year PM Modi is participating in this programme in Visakhapatnam “It is learned that Minister Nara Lokesh is personally supervising the yoga arrangements. I have heard that efforts are being made for a Guinness Book record. Lokesh is paying special attention to this,” PM Modi said during his interaction with the TDP MP.
Lavu Srikrishna Devaraya said that Prime Minister Modi appreciated the special attention being taken by the AP government. He stated that he had explained to the Prime Minister that steps are being taken to organize yoga in all places across the state and all the public representatives are ready to make this program a success.
The AP government is taking special interest to organize the 11th International Yoga Day in AP in a record-breaking manner. It is planning to reach at least two crore people for this program. Similarly, the authorities are making arrangements to organize Yoga Day in Visakhapatnam with the aim of setting a Guinness World Record.
Programs will be held in all suitable areas from RK Beach to Srikakulam Beach with the participation of 5 lakh people. This program, which will be attended by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, is being organized wonderfully and is aimed at paving the way for yoga practice in the state.
To this extent, steps are being taken to ensure that about 2.5 lakh people participate in it. 2,58,948 people will be provided with the opportunity to practice yoga in 68 areas. The authorities have identified many vacant places for organizing yoga, including RK Beach, Rushikonda, school, cricket, police, sports and navy premises.
In 2023, it was organized in Surat with 1,53,000 people and entered the Guinness World Record. This time, the AP government is planning to rewrite that record. It has been taking drastic steps in this direction.
