Deshbhakti curriculum will be rolled out in government schools across the national capital starting from September 27, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal announced on Sunday. The move is aimed at instilling a sense of pride in every child and preparing them to give their everything for the nation. Furthermore, yoga classes shall also be started across Delhi's halls and parks starting from October 2.
"Delhi gave yoga to the entire world, but now it is becoming extinct. Apart from the International Yoga Day celebrations on June 21 that are held every year, there is not much happening for yoga. We will be starting yoga classes and are preparing a huge team of yoga teachers and instructors. A group of 30-40 people, who want to learn yoga, can approach us and we will provide yoga instructors," Kejriwal said. Kejriwal was addressing the gathering after hoisting the national flag at Delhi Secretariat to mark independence day.
