Mental health is also important. The entire world has started understanding it and hence all of them are now following yoga. Everyone should learn yoga and practice it, which is the main objective the International Yoga Day. The COVID-19 Pandemic has made a huge impact on not only the entire mankind but also on nature. As a result of which we are still not able to come out of our houses fearlessly and enjoy the company of our friends. Lakhs of people used to gather at one place during International Yoga Day since 2015. But this year we are forced to observe the day ‘staying at home.’ We should not limit practicing yoga just on this day. We should indeed inculcate a habit of practicing it every day in our lives and make our society disease-free. I wish the country shall get rid of the pandemic as soon as possible,” he said.
