As per guideline from the Ministry of HRD, the department of Higher Education, Higher Institutions should celebrate International Day of Yoga each year in June. 21st June is marked as IDY by Govt. of India. JNU Yoga Kendra has been celebrating IDY since 2015. The Yoga Kendra has always been spreading this ancient yogic science to the JNU community and outside of the JNU also by conducting Yoga practice sessions on the occasion of International Day of Yoga.
However, this year is significantly different from the previous years due to ongoing coronavirus outbreak. In the light of its rapid global spreading, on March 11, 2021, the World Health Organization has declared it a pandemic and strongly suggested to maintain social distancing in order to slow down the spread of the virus. Accordingly, the theme of this year International Day of Yoga is ‘GharGhar me Yog’, which signifies the importance of staying at home and practice Yoga with family while observing social distancing. Staying at home would keep you away from contagious Coronavirus and Yoga would help keep you and your family in good health.
In accordance with the above guidelines circulated by the Ayush Ministry, Government of India, JNU has decided to celebrate IDY2020 through webinar and online live workshops. Furthermore, the Vice-Chancellor of the University will also launch FIT-JNU: a wholesome wellness program for JNU and All on 21st June, 2021.
