International Yoga Day ::: Army forms 'Bharatmala' from Siachen to Kanyakumari to mark Yoga Day

The Indian forces know how to mark a big occasion in style. Bharatmala formed from the eastern extremity of Dong, where the first rays of the Sun fall in India to the sand dunes of Longewala in Rajasthan, where the epic battle was fought in 1971, from the glacial heights of Siachen to the southern tip of Kanyakumari and in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands.


The Indian Army formed a 'Bharatmala' by conducting Yoga all along the border areas of the nation from Kashmir to Kanyakumari to mark the occasion 









Lt. Gen. Upendra Dwivedi, General Officer Commanding-in-Chief (GOC-in-C), Northern Command participated in the event organised at Udhampur in J&K, the Army said on Wednesday.  


As part of International Yoga Day, the Indian Army at Pangode Military Station, organised a underwater Yoga session in Kerala.
