The yoga session was held with the personal intervention of Director General IMPARD, Saurabh Bhagat.
Considering the high job stress and feeling of exhaustion among the Government functionaries due to their demanding jobs and long working hours, Saurabh Bhagat, organized this Yoga Session for trainees in order to help and equip them with simple and practical tools and techniques to get rid of stress, anxiety, negativity, and achieve a stress-free, positive, calm, happy, and peaceful mind.
Saurabh Bhagat, after thorough deliberations, has decided to make Yoga an essential component of training at IMPARD for all levels of Government functionaries (senior, middle, and junior) to facilitate them to benefit from Yoga in their professional and personal lives.
