In pictures: How politicians did their bit for International Yoga Day

With the world celebrating International Yoga Day today, many of our politicians amongst thousands others took part in practicing Yoga. Prime Minister Narendra Modi was himself at Rajpath, along with a reported 37,000 others who took part in the Yoga programme on Sunday morning. Pictures of our leaders in one asana or another flooded Twitter. Along with the PM, Union Ministers Rajnath Singh, Manohar Parrikar and Venkaiah Naidu were seen practicing Yoga on the day. Ram Madhav and Meenakshi Lekhi were seen too, as was Maharashtra CM Devendra Fadnavis. Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal was at Rajpath too, and did mention that Yoga shouldn’t be politicised. There was less buzz in Patna though, as BJP President Amit Shah attended a Yoga camp, but desisted from joining in. Here are those who were seen on Twitter, in no particular order:PM Shri @narendramodi participates in the mass yoga demonstration at Rajpath on occasion of International #YogaDay pic.twitter.com/ym0LHn6srs — PIB India (@PIB_India) June 21, 2015PM Shri @narendramodi participates in the mass yoga demonstration at Rajpath on occasion of International #YogaDay pic.twitter.com/TpMAD9OjPj — PIB India (@PIB_India) June 21, 2015#InternationalDayofYoga The Prime Minister @narendramodi at Rajpath this morning. pic.twitter.com/F6OqSEtj0Y — Sitanshu Kar (@SpokespersonMoD) June 21, 2015PM participates in the mass yoga demonstration at Rajpath on the occasion of International Yoga Day pic.twitter.com/G5X8yq79kJ — PIB India (@PIB_India) June 21, 2015#InternationalYogaDay at Lucknow pic.twitter.com/nphbRsqDtv — HMO India (@HMOIndia) June 21, 2015HM performing 'Tadasana'. #InternationalYogaDay pic.twitter.com/UCZ1gdyqEC — HMO India (@HMOIndia) June 21, 2015Defence Minister @manoharparrikar takes part in #InternationalDayofYoga at RVC Centre at Meerut this morning. pic.twitter.com/RctE2J1Khh — Sitanshu Kar (@SpokespersonMoD) June 21, 2015#WorldWithYoga | Maharashtra CM @Dev_Fadnavis takes part in International Yoga Day LIVE: http://t.co/lh3mmupIyt pic.twitter.com/6jsumxj6ZF — CNN-IBN News (@ibnlive) June 21, 2015Extremely happy to participate in International Day of Yoga at YMCA grounds, Nandanam in Chennai pic.twitter.com/kOrQ7TCi8T — M Venkaiah Naidu (@MVenkaiahNaidu) June 21, 2015@rammadhavbjp nd @M_Lekhi at rajpath on yoga day pic.twitter.com/SU9tueg4i9 — Ravindra Singh (@ravindrak2000) June 21, 2015@ArvindKejriwal at rajpath pic.twitter.com/wu2nEpxeQC — Ravindra Singh (@ravindrak2000) June 21, 2015
