Prime Minister Narendra Modi, while doing Yogas on Thursday morning with more than 50 thousand people in the city's forest research institute complex, said that the ancient Indian yogic tradition has emerged as the biggest power to unite this struggling world. 

While addressing thousands of people in front of the British Institute's building, Modi said that Yoga has shown the way to 'cure the disease' and is enriching the lives of people around the world. He said the reality is that in the pursuit of health and well-being, Yoga Day has taken the form of the biggest mass movement in the world. He said that being healthy is very important for establishing a peaceful world.
