MEDININAGAR (JHARKHAND): Ahead of the International Yoga Day on June 21, Bihar chief minister Nitish Kumar on Sunday said it is “irrelevant (to perform yoga) without imposing ban” on sale of liquor across the country. “Yoga is a natural treatment process but liquor addicts cannot perform it. Yoga would be irrelevant unless a ban is imposed on sale of liquor across the country,” he said at a meeting in Medininagar in Palamu district. He also accused the BJP of turning the International Yoga Day event into a “party affair”.
