According to Indian Ambassador Pranay Verma, Vietnam has always been an important partner of India in promoting and celebrating the International Day of Yoga since it was proclaimed by the United Nations General Assembly in 2014.
The widespread love for Yoga in Vietnam has brought about a strong cultural connection and people-to-people exchange between the two countries, he added, noting that in 2022, Vietnam was selected by the Government of India as one of the countries included in the Global Yoga Ring programme.
In the capital city, the International Day of Yoga will be marked on June 18 at Ly Thai To statue square in Hoan Kiem district.
