About 300 teachers, non-teaching staff, and 3000 students participated in it directly as well as online. Students from school to Ph.D., teachers, alumni, and associates were present on the occasion.

Chordia, Vice President Sushma Chordia, and Assistant Vice President Snehal Navlakha also did full-time yoga demonstrations with everyone. The congregation of experts in the field of yoga and health from time to time was paying close attention to each of these practitioners. Who is tired, Pulse beats all these are being looked after by the caste and this activity is voluntary and no one should force himself on it, such instructions were given from time to time. The music of veteran tabla player Amit Choubey and singer and harmonium player Jayant Singh Chouhan gave unique energy to the participants. At this time Prof. Dr. Sanjay b. Chordia, Sushma Chordia, Snehal Navlakha, Yoga Instructor Sonali Sasar, and Savita Gandhi guided everyone.

Along with the rhythm of the tabla and harmonium, rhythmic yoga was also performed on songs like Lezim Tal, Ganpati Dhol Tal, Koli Geetacha Tal, Dhangar Geet, and Hum Honge Kamyab. During this time, various exercises like pranayama, warm-up, sun salutation, and yoga were performed and ‘Talarogyam’ was performed. Prof. Dr. Sanjay b. The event was organized under the leadership of Chordia, Sushma Chordia, and Snehal Navlakha.
Speaking about this, Prof. Dr. Sanjay b. Chordia said, “Yoga was practiced here for more than four hours in a row today. This experience will be remembered by children throughout their lives. Since this knowledge is not from books but from demonstrations, it has definitely boosted the confidence of the children. World Yoga Day is not achieved by half an hour of yoga. That is why this event was organized with the intention of doing something more and different than usual on the list. I am very happy and proud that all the students, teachers, and non-teaching staff made it a success. It is not an easy task to do yoga for three hours or more in a row here. So congratulations to everyone who has done such yoga in a row.
