Yoga should be made broader in practice: PM Oli

Prime Minister Oli also urged one and all to follow the discipline and make a positive change in the society.

“We should work with the sacred spirit that I do not engage in violence; I do not tell lies; I do not covet the rights and property of others; I do not involve in corruption,” said Prime Minister Oli, adding, “We should not be anarchic and ill-mannered, we should expand the yoga started by Nepalese ancestors thousands of years ago from this land.”

Reiterating that yoga and meditation keep the heart and brain healthy, PM Oli said that is why yoga should be given special importance.
