In some countries like the US, we are hosting multiple events across various cities.' The state government is mobilising large-scale participation not only in Visakhapatnam but also through simultaneous yoga activities across Andhra Pradesh on 21 June.

The idea to observe an international yoga day was first proposed by Prime Minister Narendra Modi during his address to the United Nations General Assembly in 2014. He recommended 21 June—the Summer Solstice and the longest day of the year in the Northern Hemisphere—as a symbolic date to promote health, harmony and global unity through yoga.
