BJP leader Shaina NC said, "You know our Prime Minister Narendra Modi has started International Yoga Day on June 21, and we have taken this campaign as forward as possible. Now, our only agenda is to ensure people are healthy, people respect their city and people love there city. I think the fact that this organisation has grown so large is obviously the inspiration of Prime Minister Modi of spreading awareness of yoga."

Health guru Mickey Mehta, who has especially devised a 'Yo Workout' that entail simplified yoga, which can easily be practised by the people of all ages, said, "It is very gratifying because this movement, which our PM Narendra Modi ji has started and Shaina NC ji has taken it forward. It is so good, yoga is so good. It is an answer to all problems, it's a solution to all problems of life."
