Around 8000 cadets of Karnataka and Goa Directorate from all over Bangalore took part in this celebration of International Yoga Day, Two eminent personalities joined with us on this auspicious occasion, Brigadier D M Purvimath VSM* Deputy Director General of NCC and Ananth Kumar Union Minister of Karnataka, It was a great honour to have both of them among us.
We started our Yoga session at 8:00 am in Field Marshal Manekshaw Parade Ground, which was a complete procedure of relaxing a human mind and body. A few minutes of Yoga during the day can be a great way to get rid of stress that accumulates daily in both the body and mind.
Yoga postures, Pranayama and meditation are effective techniques to release stress. In view of this, the NCC directorate of Karnataka and Goa has taken an initiative to motivate its cadets to practice yoga in their day to day activities.
This activity was a successful one we would like thank our Commanding Officer Col Rajeev Gupta and Our Principal for giving us this opportunity, and also all the yoga instructors & organisers.
