This is such a wonderful initiative! Yoga truly unites us all, regardless of age or ability. Visakhapatnam setting an example for the entire state 👏 Hope they live stream it so people across Andhra can participate virtually too!

Good to see special arrangements for disabled participants. Yoga should be accessible to all. But I hope they maintain proper social distancing - 1000 people is a large gathering. Safety first!

As a Vizag resident, I'm proud! 🌊 Our city has perfect beaches for morning yoga. Hope they arrange drinking water and shade - June sun can be brutal by 6:30 am itself. Maybe next year they can do it at RK Beach?

While I appreciate the effort, I wish they'd focus more on regular yoga classes throughout the year rather than just one big event. Yoga isn't about spectacle but daily practice. Still, better than nothing!

My grandmother (75) is so excited to participate! She's been doing yoga since 1970s. It's heartwarming to see senior citizens included. Request organizers to have medical staff on standby just in case 🙏

Why only 1000 participants? With proper planning, Vizag can easily host 5000+ for such events. India gave yoga to the world, we should celebrate it in bigger way! Port Stadium has capacity for more people.
