Lets know about Ranchi:

Ranchi, city, capital of Jharkhand state, northeastern India. It lies along the Subarnarekha River.
Ranchi was constituted a municipality in 1869.

The city has major rail and road connections and is the centre of the region’s agricultural, cotton,
and tea trade. Silk production and the manufacture of shellac and heavy machine tools are the
city’s major industries. The headquarters of the National Coal Development Corporation, the
Heavy Engineering Corporation, and the Hindustan Steel Company are located there, as are a
military cantonment, radium and lac research institutes, and two mental-health hospitals. Ranchi
University, founded in 1960, includes affiliated colleges of law, medicine, and teacher training.

Lets come to the topic”Halasana”.

This yoga pose gets its name from the plow — a popular farming tool commonly used in Indian
agriculture to prepare the soil for sowing crops. Like its namesake, this pose prepares the
‘field’ of the body and mind for deep rejuvenation. Halasana is pronounced as hah-LAHS-
uh-nuh.​

Parsva Halasana is an advanced variation of the Halasana.

Steps

1. Lie on your back with your arms beside you, palms downwards.
2. As you inhale, use your abdominal muscles to lift your feet off the floor, raising your legs
vertically at a 90-degree angle.
3. Continue to breathe normally and supporting your hips and back with your hands, lift
them off the ground.
4. Allow your legs to sweep in a 180-degree angle over your head till your toes touch the
floor. Your back should be perpendicular to the floor. This may be difficult initially, but
make an attempt for a few seconds.
5. Hold this pose and let your body relax more and more with each steady breath.
6. After about a minute (a few seconds for beginners) of resting in this pose, you may gently
bring your legs down on exhalation.
