Question

TodaySprint · Accepted Answer

The correct answer is Option A: Yoga for Healthy Ageing. The theme of the 12th International Day of Yoga (2026) is “Yoga for Healthy Ageing”, announced by the Ministry of Ayush. The 12th International Day of Yoga will be observed on 21 June 2026, with the main national celebration scheduled in Kolkata. The United Nations General Assembly declared 21 June as the International Day of Yoga in 2014, and the first observance took place in 2015. The “Yoga 365” initiative promotes year-round daily yoga practice rather than limiting participation to the annual observance on 21 June. Union Ayush Minister Prataprao Jadhav highlighted the IDY 2026 theme during public outreach activities on 7 June 2026. Prime Minister Narendra Modi endorsed the “Yoga 365” campaign during the inaugural World Yogasana Championship held in Ahmedabad. The Ministry of Ayush has introduced “10 Yoga Protocols for Non-Communicable Diseases and Target Groups”, including a dedicated protocol for elderly persons. Research publications related to “Yoga for Healthy Aging” increased from 183 in 2014 to 1,207 in 2025, reflecting growing scientific interest in yoga and age-related health.
