At the Chutia mandal in Ranchi district, Babulal Marandi addressed participants following a yoga session, stating that yoga is a symbol of India’s ancient cultural heritage, which has gained global recognition due to the efforts of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
“Yoga reflects the Indian philosophy of universal brotherhood. Our sages gave the message of ‘Sarve Bhavantu Sukhinah, Sarve Santu Niramayah’ thousands of years ago, and this year’s theme—‘Yoga for One Earth, One Health’—is rooted in that very ideal,” he said.
