MLA Basohli Darshan Singh appreciated the initiative of the District Administration and said promoting Yoga at such scenic locations helps spread the message of health and wellness among the masses. He said Yoga is highly relevant today and called for a collective resolve to adopt "Yoga 365" by practising it daily for a healthier lifestyle.

The DC called upon people to participate in the International Day of Yoga celebrations on 21 June and make Yoga an integral part of their daily routine.
