Addressing a gathering of nearly 10,000 people at Connaught Place, he extolled the benefits of yoga. The minister also performed asanas at the event along with other dignitaries, including NDA's presidential candidate Ram Nath Kovind and Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal.
"Yoga is not political and it is not religious. It is a traditional Indian art and has been practised in the country from times immemorial," he said at the event.
Naidu also expressed happiness at the fact that yoga has become popular globally and credited Prime Minister Narendra Modi for it.
He suggested that people should take to practising yoga as part of their daily routine since it takes care of one's health.
