NEW DELHI, JUNE 23, 2025:  PRIME Minister, Narendra Modi marked the 11th International Day of Yoga (IYD) celebrations in Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh today and took part in the Yoga session.

The Prime Minister Leading the national celebration on the occasion of 11th International Day of Yoga (IDY),  participated in the Common Yoga Protocol (CYP) session at the beachfront of Visakhapatnam, alongside nearly 5 lakh participants, while leading the nation in a harmonious yoga demonstration.
