Introduce kids to sanatan culture, yoga and Gita, says Assam CM Himanta Biswa Sarma

Chief minister Himanta Biswa Sarma said learningyogafrom a tender age can play a role in preventing youths from becoming victims of ‘love jihad’. He was speaking at an event organised in Dhubri on Wednesday to markInternational Day.

Amid concerns among minority representatives regarding their fate after the release of the delimitation draft by the EC, CM Himanta Biswa Sarma reached Dhubri, where Muslims have been playing a determining role in Elections. The opposition parties have alleged that the redrawing of the constituency was done to concentrate minority votes in “limited seats”.

There is only one solution – introduce children to sanatan culture from a young age, impart them lessons in yoga, and discuss holy books like theGitadaily. Our youths will never get misled. Considering the geographical location of Dhubri (close to Bangladesh border), the natives should practice yoga and imbibe the gyan and the noble qualities of sanatan culture, and preach the same to the younger generation,” he added.
