From high-altitude mountains to parade grounds in the plains, a large number of armed forces personnel took part in yoga sessions across the country to mark International Day of Yoga on Sunday (June 21, 2026).
All military commands of the three services — the Army, Navy and the Air Force — have been gearing up for this annual event, which seeks to promote physical fitness, mental resilience and holistic well-being.
In the national capital, the Indian Army is hosting the event at the Cariappa Parade Ground at Delhi Cantonment.
Army jawans and others, positioned in a huge grid formation, stretched their arms and legs to perform various ‘asanas’.
“The yoga session at the Cariappa Parade Ground began at around 6 am. About 3,500 people gathered at the venue for the event, including Army personnel and their families, several defence attaches, NCC cadets, and school children,” a senior Army officer told PTI.
Similar events have been lined up at various Army commands — Northern, Western, Eastern, Southern, Central and South Western Commands. — PTI
