The prime minister is a yoga enthusiast and in the run-up to the fourth International Yoga Day on June 21, he has shared several 3D animated videos showcasing various asanas.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi, tagged by Virat Kohli in his FitnessChallenge video, today tweeted a video of his morning exercises and passed on the challenge to Karnataka Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy, Commonwealth medalist Manika Batra and 40-plus Indian Police Service (IPS) officers.
The choice of Mr Kumaraswamy, who recently stymied the BJP's attempts to form a government in fractured Karnataka by forming an alliance with the Congress, may generate some political buzz. The Janata Dal Secular-Congress tie-up has inspired opposition parties to attempt a joint fight to take on the BJP in the 2019 national elections.
Mr Kumaraswamy tweeted soon after, but used his response to make a larger point - that his state would need the centre's cooperation.PM Modi had also tweeted: "Here are my morning exercises. Apart from Yoga, I walk on a track inspired by the Panchtatvas or 5 elements of nature - Prithvi, Jal, Agni, Vayu, Aakash. This is extremely refreshing and rejuvenating. I also practice breathing exercises.
