THE Consulate General of India in Durban has announced events in Durban during June in line with the International Day of Yoga on 21 June.
In its resolution, the UN General Assembly (UNGA) recognised that yoga provided a holistic approach to health and well-being, and wider dissemination of the information on the benefits of practicing yoga should be given for overall health of the world population.
