New Delhi: PM Narendra Modi announced the launch of M-Yoga app which will provide many videos of yoga training based on common yoga protocol in many languages.

Terming this as a great example of fusion of modern technology and ancient science, the Prime Minister expressed the hope that m-yoga app will help in spreading yoga world over and will contribute to the efforts of ‘One World One Health’.

Modi has said that despite the pandemic, this year’s theme for International Yoga Day –“Yoga for wellness" has raised the morale of people and he wished for health of every country, society and individual and hoped that we will be united and will strengthen each other. He was speaking on the occasion of seventh International Yoga Day, today.

The Prime Minister talked of Yoga’s role during the pandemic.

He said Yoga has proved a source strength and poise for people during this difficult time.

He pointed out that it was easy for countries to forget Yoga Day during the pandemic as it is not intrinsic to their culture but, instead, enthusiasm for Yoga has increased globally.

"Yoga helped people to muster confidence and strength to fight with the pandemic world over," Modi said.

The Prime Minister recalled how frontline Corona warriors made Yoga their shield and made themselves strong through yoga and how people, doctors and nurses took to Yoga to deal with the effects of the virus.

He said experts are stressing  the importance of breathing exercises like pranayama and anulom-vilom for strengthening our respiratory system.
