'Yogandhra' unites 60 lakh in Andhra schools

To mark International Yoga Day, Andhra Pradesh's schools pulled off something huge—Yogandhra.
On June 21, 61,266 schools got involved, with nearly 60 lakh students, teachers, and parents rolling out their mats together.
The big idea? Making yoga a regular part of school life to boost everyone's mental and physical well-being.

TL;DR

Campaign started in May

Yogandhra wasn't just a one-day thing—it kicked off back in May with all kinds of yoga activities leading up to the main event.
B Srinivasa Rao from Samagra Shiksha called it a great step for student wellness and holistic growth.
The campaign really showed how schools are getting everyone—students, families, and the community—involved in healthier living through yoga.
