The Institute for Yoga Education Research & Holistic Sciences (IYERHS), Silchar, Assam (North-East), a Member Institute of the Indian Yoga Association, recently launched “Yoga Dham se Yoga Gaon”, a free yogic wellness programme aimed at promoting holistic health in rural communities, particularly in tea garden areas. The initiative was formally inaugurated on 26 January 2026 by Shri Rituraj Bordoloi (Circle Officer, Udharband, Cachar, Assam), Shri Mihir Kanti Shome (MLA, Udharband), Shri Kishalaya Bhattacharjee, Shri Maroof Barbhuiya, Shri Fakhrul Islam Laskar, along with officers and staff of the Udharband Circle and Settlement Office.
Under the first phase of this outreach project, IYERHS has committed to adopting three villages to create awareness and provide structured training in yogic practices. The programme aims to enhance physical health, mental well-being, and lifestyle discipline among rural populations. As part of this initiative, the institute will also conduct free yogic wellness sessions in educational institutions located in tea garden areas, thereby extending the benefits of yoga to students and young learners.
On the occasion of Republic Day, IYERHS was also invited by the Udharband Circle Office to conduct a special Yogic Wellness Programme. Yogacharya Rahul, Himaghna Bhattacharjee, and Ratul Chakraborty played key roles in successfully conducting the session, which included advanced asana demonstrations and a Y-Break workshop. The institute received a letter of appreciation from the Circle Office in recognition of its valuable contribution, which was formally handed over by the Circle Officer and the MLA, marking a significant acknowledgment of IYERHS’s service-oriented efforts in the region.
