Early Times Report MAHOBA, June 22: Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath addressed a public gathering in Mahoba on the occasion of International Yoga Day. While emphasizing the practice of yoga, he also launched a sharp attack on the opposition. The Chief Minister stated, "Yoga inspires harmony between the body, mind, intellect and soul. A healthy body leads to a healthy mind, a healthy mind leads to a healthy intellect, a healthy intellect leads to a healthy soul, and a healthy soul paves the way for public welfare. Those who indulge in illegal encroachments and spread negativity with a negative mindset have tainted souls and polluted minds. Such people, working with a diseased mentality, had ruined the state and brought disrepute to Bundelkhand." CM Yogi inaugurated and laid foundation stones for 88 development projects worth over ?697 crore in Modi Gram. A short film dedicated to the development of Mahoba was also screened on the occasion. CM Yogi noted, "All of you participated in the International Yoga Day programme this morning. India's heritage has received global recognition. The 12th International Yoga Day was celebrated with grandeur under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. I also had the opportunity to participate in the event held at the grounds of Rani Lakshmibai Fort in Jhansi."
