| Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who on Tuesday joined over 30,000 people in Chandigarh for the second International Yoga Day celebrations, freely mingled with the participants, obliging them with selfies and talking briefly with the 'divyangs'.
Soon after addressing the gathering for about 25 minutes, PM Modi climbed down from the podium but before joining the participants to perform "asanas", went straight to meet the 'divyangs', the nomenclature coined by him for the differently-abled, youths and people from economically weaker sections.
For the first time, 150 divyangs were assisted in performing Yoga 'asanas' at the Capitol Complex in Chandigarh, the venue of the mega event.
PM Modi also interacted with the inmates of Paraplegic Rehabilitation Centre (PRC), Mohali, who were doing 'asanas' on wheel-chairs.
A group of 16 such inmates, many of them from the Army who have been left paralysed owing to injuries sustained during various operations, had come to the Capitol Complex on Tuesday to participate in the Yoga Day celebrations.
PM Modi then walked around, surveying people performing 'asanas' before settling down on a mat and joining them.
The Prime Minister then participated in a mass demonstration of 'Common Yoga Protocol'.
