Emphasizingthat daily physical wellness is the only effective antidote to the pressures of modern life, Rapthadu MLA Paritala Sunitha on Tuesday called upon citizens across all age groups to make yoga an permanent, integral part of their morning routines.

She made the remarks while participating as the chief guest at the special “Yoga-2026” programme, organized ahead of the 12th International Day of Yoga at the scenic premises of the Sri Tirumala Devara Venkateswara Swamy Temple near Nasanakota in Ramagiri mandal.

The wellness campaign witnessed strong voluntary attendance, with local Telugu Desam Party (TDP) cadre, mandal revenue officials, and hundreds of rural residents joining the mass session.

Setting a personal example, the MLA rolled out a mat and performed a series of synchronized asanas alongside the participants.

Addressing the congregation, Sunitha noted that modern lifestyles have become increasingly mechanical, leaving individuals vulnerable to severe physical exhaustion and emotional stress.

She stated that regular, uninterrupted yoga practice serves a dual purpose—optimizing physical stamina while restoring mental peace and emotional equilibrium.

The legislator lamented that neglecting physical health under the pretext of busy work hours is directly causing chronic lifestyle disorders among the youth.

Observing that the Union and State governments are heavily backing the wellness movement, she appealed to families to transform yoga into a daily household habit to build a healthier, more vibrant society.
