The meeting commenced with confirming the minutes of 22nd Executive Council Meeting held on January 30, 2021. Thereafter, it was decided to finalise the Concept Note on Yoga as soon as possible as Indian Yoga Association is the nodal as­sociation promoting the ancient science. Dr Jaideep Arya suggested to create a note that would widen the scope of inclusion for the institutions or indi­viduals who would want to join IYA Family.

The EC members also agreed upon adding Manipur and Tripura as the State Chapters of the association. Everybody was also informed that for the upcom­ing International Day of Yoga, a pre-recorded fif­teen-minute discourse will be relayed continuously from 10.00 a.m. to 6.00 p.m by IYA to highlight the event and utilize the opportunity to increase awareness of its uniqueness and togetherness.
