Yoga is being adopted as a system to alleviate the burden of noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) across the globe.

The present article brings out the AYUSH initiatives the State is taking toward active ageing. A total of 71,096 people participated in the 5-day-yoga camp across the State. A mean participation of 5079 people over 5 days was reported across districts. Such statewide practices need to be promoted and appraised.
