Stop collective Surya Namaskar on Jan 12: Nath

Bhopal: Former chief minister and state Congress president Kamal Nath on Saturday demanded that the

Surya Namaskar

programme to be held on January 12 for school children be stopped seeing the present

Corona

virus spread situation. The senior Congress leader argued that while the state government has issued a long list of prohibitory guidelines on December 23 last year for citizens, the regime is not adhering to its own rules.“The government has issued orders for holding mass Surya Namaskar for school children across the state on the occasion on Swami Vivekananda birth anniversary,” Kamal Nath said in a statement. “We are not against Surya Namaskar but seeing the increasing cases of Corona infections, we want children to do Surya Namaskar but in the safety of their homes. There should not be collective Surya Namaskar functions held in crowded public places because it will break the Corona guidelines,” he said. TNN
