He further said that it was a big thing as almost two hundred nations around the world are celebrating International Yoga Day.
Earlier this month, while talking to ANI, Baba Ramdev described the importance and benefits of Yoga.
"I would appeal everyone to come out and perform Yoga on the Yoga day (June 21). Modi ji will be in Lucknow and I will be in Ahmedabad. Yoga is compulsory for all professionals. Yoga gives you fitness, sharp memory and boosts your confidence. Hence, it is a very important exercise for a human being," he said.
