Our Prime Minister, Mr Narendra Modi may have already become a travel icon with his unending bucket list, but guess who just updated his fitness life to a whole another level.
Indian skipper Virat Kohli had recently (read May 23) challenged the prime minister in his #FitnessChallenge video, which the latter accepted. However, we weren’t sure when we would see him on his morning walk or a yoga session but looks like the day is finally here:

In the video, Prime Minister Narendra Modi is seen doing various asanas like Pranayam in the lawns of 7, Lok Kalyan Marg residence.
He then passed on the challenge to…

Modi government has often promoted yoga on national and international level. In 2015, on PM’s suggestion the United Nations General Assembly declared June 21 as the International Yoga Day. Not to mention, on June 21, 2015, India broke the world record in the first edition of International Yoga Day where led by PM Modi, over 35,985 participants performed Yoga at Rajpath, Delhi.
Age no bar when it comes to fitness!
