“I apologize for taking these harsh steps which have caused difficulties in your lives, especially the poor people. I know some of you would be angry with me also. But these tough measures were needed to win this battle,” PM Modi said on Sunday.
Right after taking charge as the Prime Minister during his first term in 2014, Prime Minister Narendra Modi rallied for the cause of spreading the benefits of yoga across the world.
In 2015, his efforts led to the United Nations announcing June 21 as the International Day of Yoga.
