In the spirit of the upcoming International Day of Yoga 2025, Assam Rifles conducted a series of yoga sessions across Manipur, reaffirming its commitment to holistic wellness, community engagement and mental resilience.
A unique yoga session was organised at Komlakhong, Bishnupur District, amidst the serene and iconic phumdis of Loktak Lake. With 58 participants, including 28 local youth, this session fostered spiritual calm and physical vitality in an extraordinary natural setting. The event symbolised Assam Rifles’ deep connection with the local communities and its efforts to promote healthy lifestyle choices among the younger generation.
Assam Rifles conducted a yoga session with 50 school children of Jamkholin Model Academy at Sajik Tampak, Chandel District. This early morning event, themed “Yoga for Self and Society,” aimed to raise awareness about the benefits of yoga for mental clarity, physical fitness and emotional well-being. The initiative resonated with the national spirit of unity and inner peace that Yoga Day represents.
Continuing its outreach on 15 June 2025, Assam Rifles organised another round of yoga sessions in Kakching District as part of the 11th International Yoga Day celebrations. Sessions were held at Serou, Khongjom War Memorial, Waikhong, and Phundrei, involving troops, families, and the local populace. A free medical checkup camp was also set up at Serou, extending healthcare support to the community. The sessions emphasized yoga as a daily practice for managing stress, improving focus, and enhancing physical and mental readiness among personnel and civilians alike.
Through these yoga initiatives, Assam Rifles continues to uphold its motto of “Seva, Suraksha, Bandhutva”—service, security, and brotherhood—while reinforcing its dedication to the well-being of both its personnel and the people of the Northeast.
