REF: CELEBRATION OF INTERNATION DAY OF YOGA. SUNDAY 20TH JUNE 2021

India’s Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the United Nations can be heartily credited for bringing
International Yoga Day into existence. On September 27, 2014, during his speech at the UN General
Assembly, Narendra Modi put forth his suggestion for the occasion of a ‘Yoga Day’. The draft resolution
proposed by India was then endorsed by a record 177 member states. The United Nations General Assembly
proposed on December 11 and established June 21 as "International Yoga Day." The date was assigned for
the occasion as it is the longest day when the sun is out at its most compared to every other day of the year.

This year, Hindu Swayamsevak Sangh – Kenya, [HSS]. Hindu Council of Kenya [HCK] and YOGA Kenya
are celebrating the INTERNATIONAL DAY OF YOGA at Oshwal Centre on Mpaka road, Parklands, on
