Almost every world leader has discussed yoga with me: PM Modi

TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ Prime Minister Narendra Modi has said almost every conversation he has with a world leader starts with yoga and there is scarcely any dignitary who has not spent five-10 minutes discussing the wellness regime with him.

But that changed a little during his recent visit to Bhutan where the “debate” was more on his appearance in Bear Grylis’ “Man Vs Wild” programme on Discovery, he said at an event to present yoga awards here.

“Wherever I travel in the world, irrespective of how tall (in stature) the leader is, the conversation starts with yoga. There is hardly any leader who has not spent five-10 minutes talking on yoga. Some wanted to know about yoga, I have sent literature to some and there are few who practise on their own,” he said.
