The minister also stated that a series of events are being planned in the run-up to the International Day of Yoga, with a 25-day countdown beginning on May 27 in Hyderabad, where around 10,000 yoga enthusiasts will take part in a demonstration.
The Karnataka Governor, union ministers, film stars, athletes, celebrities, revered yoga gurus, eminent dignitaries, experts in Yoga and allied science, local Yoga institutions, and Yoga enthusiasts will all be present at the event.
