The state government is encouraging people from all walks of life to come together and make this Yoga Day a community celebration.

Ahead of the big day, Swami Ramdev took to social media to underline the importance of yoga in everyday life.

In a heartfelt post on X (formerly Twitter), he shared, “Our body is the medium through which we fulfill our duties and responsibilities. It is essential to keep our body healthy to carry out all our life’s work meaningfully. Daily yoga practice is key to this. Let’s take a pledge this International Day of Yoga to make yoga a part of our lives and contribute to building a healthier India.”

The official handle of the Chief Minister’s Office (CMO) Haryana also invited citizens to join the event with great enthusiasm.

The theme this year strongly focuses on two core ideas: embracing yoga as a daily practice and working towards an addiction-free society.

By combining physical well-being with social awareness, the campaign is looking to spark positive lifestyle changes across the state.
