In a vibrant address in New Delhi on Sunday, Union Youth and Sports Minister Dr. Mansukh Mandaviya hailed the ‘Sunday on Cycle’ program as a full-fledged movement sweeping the nation.
Interacting with the media, he highlighted how PM Narendra Modi’s push for fitness has resonated deeply. ‘Fit India is more than a slogan; it’s the foundation of Viksit Bharat,’ Mandaviya stated. He stressed that a fit youth population is vital for societal health and national prosperity.
Calling on the younger generation to stay active, Mandaviya positioned fitness as a patriotic duty. The initiative, kickstarted in December 2024 by his ministry, promotes weekly cycling events to tackle lifestyle diseases and environmental concerns.
Mandaviya’s hands-on leadership sees him pedaling through multiple cities, rallying participants. Collaborations with institutions ensure widespread reach, with millions joining in. Celebrity athletes’ involvement adds star power, motivating masses toward sustainable fitness habits.
Echoing PM Modi’s belief, the minister affirmed that only a healthy demographic can propel India forward. As participation surges, ‘Sunday on Cycle’ exemplifies how grassroots efforts can ignite a fitness revolution.
